Hello, I have had Botox in the ‘11’ lines and my forehead five days ago. When relaxed both eyebrows are at the same position, however when I try to raise my brows, one raises to a very high ‘spock like’ appearance, whilst the other barely moves. I am worried this will get worse over time. Is there anything I can do or do I need to wait for it to wear-off? Is this normal?
Answer: Uneven results Typically one can start seeing results from Botox in 3-5 days. Full effects are usually visible within 7-10 days. It is possible that one side is showing Botox effects faster than the other side. It's also possible that there will be some asymmetry even a few weeks or months after injection, but I always recommend waiting the full 10 days after injections before deciding on touch ups as results can still change up to around that point in time. I would also advise speaking with your expert injector about any concerns you might have.All the best,

Answer: Asymmetry This type of asymmetry is corrected quite simply with a touch up of Botox. I recommend waiting for two weeks in between injections. See your injector for an evaluation.

Answer: One eyebrow raising much higher than the other after Botox. Is this normal? Thank you for sharing your excellent question. Though I would allow a full two weeks to pass before seeking additional treatment, a small amount of carefully placed Botox above the "higher" brow should help correct the "Spock-like" condition. Hope this helps.

Answer: Botox Thank you for your question. Botox can take up to 2 weeks to take full effect. If you are still experiencing the "spock look" after 2 weeks, I would call your physician for an in person follow up. Often this can be corrected with a couple additional units of botox. If you choose not that do that, then it will not get worse, and it will wear off with time, about 3-4 months.
