My plastic surgeon injected Botox under both of my eyes about 5 months ago for under eye bags. About 2 weeks later I had severe drooping of the lip and upper eyelid on one side. The lip is almost 100% now but the eyelid is still drooping slightly. So far I've done nothing but wait it out. Will apraclonidine eyedrops or any other exercise or treatment help at this point, or is this my new look for good?
