Why Do I Have an Indentation in Forehead After Botox?

la jolla9150
I see this question was asked, but without any real answer. I, too, have an indentation occurring diagonally right above my left eyebrow all the way to the hairline. it looks worse than the original wrinkles did. also, it is in a place where I physically cannot make a wrinkle on my own (even before the botox). i cannot find one other photo pre-botox where I have this wrinkle so I can guarantee its from botox. will getting more botox help or should i just wait it off? it's been two weeks.
