Involuntary Brow Contraction? How can I stop it?

2shoesfl
33year old. First botox 7 weeks ago. 11 units in the typical v pattern in glabella region. 1 week ago muscle over my right brow began to involuntarily contract. released after 10 seconds. Now both of my eyebrows will spontaneously take on my old furroewd mad brow look. Happens several times a day. Massage will actually make it happen- not alleviate it. Possibility of nerve damage by needles or muscle trauma...? Looking for any plausible diagnosis and any other symptoms that might accompany.
