I had Botox yesterday evening around crow's feet, #11's, forehead. Been doing this for 10yrs, never had a problem. I woke up in am, my eyelid felt funny. Looked like pillow marks on my eyelid near brow. I waited a few hrs after my procedure to go to sleep, slept sitting up. I don't have the indentation marks anymore but eyelid still feels odd.if this is a result of the Botox will this continue to get worse over the next few days/weeks until Botox takes full affect? Is there anything I can do?
