For the first time, I had Botox injections in my forehead area 9 weeks ago & a little top up at my follow up appointment 7 weeks ago & no side effects. The past few days I getting a tingling sensations in my forehead but mainly glabellar line area as I had a deep frown line. Down from that deep frown line on the side of my nose (top of nose wing) is tingling also. There are no marks, swelling or redness. I can see the Botox is wearing off & lines returning, could this be the wearing off process?
