I am 29 years old, frequently get Botox and juvederm but the effects of both only last about 4 weeks! I usually get 70 units of Botox, which is what my 55 year old mother gets (and it lasts forever on her!) And I get 2 syringes of juvederm in the lips... so I know I'm not under dosing! Is there any reason this is happening? I go to different plastic surgeons every time just in case it's a technique issue, but always same results.

Answer: BOTOX..WEARING OFF Hi good to answer your question.once you start seeing more muscle movement or more lines it indicates your botox is wearing off.may be due to repeated injection you had developed antibodies to the toxin .hence do plan your injection well ahead before the muscle recover fully.switch on to alternative after seeking help from your provider. to get long lasting benefit.

Answer: Consider alternatives... Thanks for your question. I'm sorry this keeps happening to you. I believe an alternative HA and neuromodulator may give you longer lasting results. Considering Dysport and Restylane products for the lips like Silk. These might be some options and similar risk profiles. Speak with your injector or seek a second opinion. Best, Dr. ALDO
