Would Like to Understand Why Botox Brow Lift Went Wrong? (photo)

April 11, 2013
Asked By:sunny998

(Considering Trying Again in a Few Months with Different Injector) 5 weeks ago had Botox in frown area + small amount above lateral brows for a brow lift (see photo). Noticed slight lift in central forehead, but have difficulty raising eyebrows (especially outer sides), and outer part of brow became puffy/low. Went back, he added more above outer brow (see photo). This had no effect. Confused why this site is supposed to give a lift. Muscle anatomy indicates the outside frontalis would be here (or no muscle at all). My orbicularis oculi is still quite strong.
