Hello and thank you for your question. Filler and botox cannot decrease the alar base width. Based on yourphotograph, you may benefit from a tip refining rhinoplasty. Your surgeon canaccomplish this by trimming, suturing, and reshaping the cartilage in yourlower nose. Cartilage grafts may also be used to help improve tip refinement.You may also benefit from reduction of the alar base width with an alarplasty. Make sure you specifically look at before and afterpictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeonand not just a computer animation system. The most importantaspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seekconsultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluateyou in person.Best wishes and good luck.Richard G. Reish, M.D.Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

I would agree that you should give it two weeks. However, ultimately the brow lift achieved with botox is limited. Your "marks" appear to be in exactly the right place. Adding more units doesn't usually help much but sometimes it does. Ultimately it won't be enough to make up for the skin laxity...
There are no specific foods to avoid after Botox. Moreso with fillers, where bruising is more likely, I advise avoiding things that thin the blood such as alcohol, aspirin, ibuprofen, vitamin E, ginseng, green tea & gingko.
I am wondering if you are on blood thinners since such bleeding is not usual from Botox, especially under the eye, where the injection is done just under the skin. And it sounds like the muscle was weakened too much from a heavy dose, causing ectropion. I would check with an oculoplastic ...
