Why Would I Have Droopy Eyelid After Juvederm & Botox Injections?

It is most likely a consequence of your BOTOX injections. You should go back to the physician who performed your injections and get evaluated. It is important to differentiate between a droopy lid and a relaxed brow, as a relaxed brow is more commonly seen. If you can open and close your lids equally on both sides, it is a relaxed brow. The nice thing about BOTOX is that it is temporary and will normalize in time.

Some people do experience unwanted side effects after these procedures. The reason for the droopy eyelid is usually when botox is injected above the brow. You might have a low brow or excess skin on the eyelid and once the brow muscle relaxes, it can drop a little causing the appearance of the droopy eyelid. That will wear off within 4 months time and you may want to tell you doctor to avoid the brow next time. The bump on the cheek could be an area where the filler was injected and it is normal to feel some lumps temporarily. This is not something to worry about as long as it is isn't visibly noticeable and it may be less obvious to the touch over the next few weeks. If it persists, see your doctor.

The eyelid dropping is  most likely caused by the Botox injections to your forehead.  If injected too close to your brow the Botox can affect the muscles that open and close your eyelids.  If it is very noticeable, there are eye drops that your PS can prescribe to reverse this effect.
