Can You Have Delayed Side Effects of Botox? (photo)

Yes these are absolutely BOTOX side effects.  They are cause for concern.  The longevity of these symptoms can be days, weeks, or months.  Obviously the longer the symptoms last, the less likely you are to have this type of treatment in the future.  These are considered mild systemic side effects.

     Bruising is infrequent after Botox, and, when it does occur, it is noticed immediately or the following day.  Noticing a bruise 6 days later may be possible but would be unlikely.

I would suggest returning to the Botox provider for further assessment. You may have a bruise from the product but that tyically occurs directly at treatment and resolves fairly quickly.

Hi dclark.  It would be unusual for the side effects you are noting to show up 6 days after Botox injections.  Typically if you are going to have a bruise or headache it happens at the time of the injection or very shortly thereafter, usually within hours.  

It's possible that the symptoms are unrelated and if they are concerning to you we would suggest visiting your personal physician.

Bruising after Botox injection appears immediately and having bruising on 6th day after injection is more likely not related to the Botox. I would highly recommend going back to the doctor for evaluation of your symptoms especially if you have such symptoms as strained feeling in the eyes, dizzy, nauseous.
