I had Botox and 10 days later, my hair was coming out by the hundreds and lost a lot of hair around my face (those new fine hairs are gone). I can see that my hairline is farther back. I only had 10 units around my mouth. I didn't do anything else different during this time. I know this is rare but it is now a reported side effect. My question is, would I have the same reaction to Dysport or Xeomin? I love Botox but it doesn't love me! My Dr says I am one of the very sensitive ones....sigh.
