I am female mid 30s. I had Botox 6 months ago and plan to return this weekend for x3 area - between eyebrows, smile lines and forehead. When I last had Botox on the same day I developed a twitch to my left eye within the hour, which lasted several weeks. Did the Botox cause this? A nurse friend has told me I was lucky I didn’t develop ptosis and I am worried this will happen again. Is eye twitching after Botox an indicator of potential ptosis? Or just a side effect of Botox settling?
