I had Botox on my forehead and frown lines. Now my eyelids feel heavy and my brows have dropped with the outer ends raised. Can this be altered? Or at least, will they go back to normal until Botox wears off? How long will this last?

Answer: You should revert back to normal after 3-4 months Typically, Botox lasts 3-4 Months and when it wears off, you should revert back to normal. We usually don't put much Botox in the lateral part of the brow so that you will get some lift in that area. It is usually placed in a V shape with the bottom of the V at the top of your nose.

Answer: Correcting Droopy Eyelids and Eyebrows After Botox Injections We have learned over the years that injecting the forehead and the frown lines is not as easy as some of us thought early on. Skilled injectors who know what to do and how much toxin to inject into each area can do it; this is best done by a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon. We are in current evaluations with that indication, and soon hopefully we can actually have an FDA indication to treat the forehead and frown lines with specific recommendations on what is not enough toxin, what is too much and how much is just right. If there is any droop, or ptosis, this needs to be corrected. If the lateral brows are raised up, theso-called Spock sign, this needs to be corrected by people who know what they are doing to correct these issues. You might want to wait until everything wears off, but I would recommend seeing someone who is really skilled here and see what can be done to minimize these effects and to takecare of things that can be easily corrected.
