It is only 1 day since I had Botox for the first time and my eyebrow/ eyelid area feel heavy. I looks like it may be sagging a bit in the outer corner. Is this normal? I am freaking out. Is this the start of brow/eyelid droop?

Answer: Botox and Low Eyebrows/Lids
It would be unusual for you to start seeing some sort of effect from the Botox after only one day. It can happen, but would be very unusual. I would give it a week to see what happens. If at that point you are experiencing some droopiness, I would address it with your physician.

Answer: Brow drop one day after botox uncommon
Since Botox normally takes 2-4 days to take effect, your immediate response is unusual. If you only had the forehead injected, and not the corrugator muscles between the eyebrows, it is very unlikely to affect the eyelids. You didn't say exactly where the Botox was plasced so it is hard to advise in your case, but my guess is that the forehead muscle was treated and causing a bit too much relaxation of the muscles that hold the brow up. It is a tricky balance sometimes, since the muscles that pull down win over the ones that pull up if they are treated only.
