I have developed a swollen and sore left eyelid (looks almost as if I have a sty) 7 days after botox injections. Are the two related?
Answer: Sty Question Botox has not been reported to cause a sty. Styes can form on the upper or lower eyelid, but unless the Botox was injected directly into that region (which would never be recommended), there is no reason the Botox should have formed the sty. I cannot give you a definitive opinion without examining you in person. This situation is probably a coincidence, and you should seek treatment with an opthalmologist if your symptoms persist. Hope this helps.

Answer: Botox/Xeomin/Dysport Facts about an Eye Sty No, Botox wouldn't cause a sty to develop. If it persists, I recommend following up with an ophthalmologist for a formal evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Sore eyelid after Botox If this truly is a sty, the two are not likely related. Warm compresses can help. I would see your injector to have the eyelid assessed though. All the best, Dr. Brace

Answer: Botox Stye Hello, Botox isn't the cause of your stye. I recommend talking to an ophthomologist to see if that stye needs to be treated. The mechanism of botox doesn't cause eyelid or skin irregularities. Hope this helps and God Bless! Dr. Robb

Answer: Stye after Botox I would say that it is unlikely that the stye on your eyelid is related to the Botox treatment you had a week ago. You might consider consulting with an eye doctor for treatment of your stye.
