Bruising after Botox at the injection site is not uncommon. However, these bruises generally resolve themselves within 1-2 weeks. Taking blood thinners, such as Advil or Aspirin, can lengthen the duration of this bruising.If you have concerns about the duration of this side effect, I would recommend scheduling a follow up with your injector. In the meantime, I have provided a link which contains more information about Botox and its potential side effects.
Bruising rarely persists after 2 weeks so this is not usual. You should go back to your injector to try to figure out what you are seeing. In some patients Botox can cause a little fluid to collect in the undereye area and this resolves once the Botox wears off. Hope this helps and best of luck.
In a certain number of individuals a bruise can leave a small amount of hemosiderin deposits under the skin making it look like it's still bruised. See a local dermatologist who specializes in laser treatments, they will be able to help you. Good luck from New York City
Bruises near the eyes after botox can last longer than one would imagine. This is due to the natural hollows in the eyes. The blue really hangs on. You didn't post any photos, so it is hard to say. Generally warm compresses are helpful in the resolution of bruises under the eye. Hoping the best for you from Sedona!

Many ENT surgeons are very comfortable with Botox injections. As long as they are board-certified and perform the treatment regularly, it shouldn't typically be an issue. My only recommendation is to see someone who performs many Botox injections, not just occasionally, as this is likely to get ...
Glutathione is a powerful and very beneficial antioxidant and there are no contraindications for oral ingestion after fillers and Botox. Laser hair removal on the face may be done every 4 to 6 weeks. I suggest that you wait at least 48 to 72 hours before or after a treatment to have a facial.
Ptosis after botox injection in the forehead is a well know though rare complication of injection in of neuromodulators in the forehead. In the picture you sent it seems your Doctor did everything right but it is possible that your Botox migrated or your anatomy is little different. I would not...
Hi smorgasvein,Typically, we use about 25 units of Botox per side for masseter hypertrophy. And if your muscle is too strong (it had all these years to be so), the effects will take longer and may be repeated 2-3 times and maintained thereafter.Another thing, when we take selfies, there is some ...
