Hi, over time can Botox cause weakening of facial muscles, which can cause the face to sag and lose elasticity? I'm worried about continuing having Botox if this is the case. I have hooding on my eyelids and this could potential cause my forehead muscles to be become weak. And having Botox around my eyes can cause cheeks to sag. Please advise as I'm not sure what to do.
Answer: Botox can weaken muscles with repeated treatments. You’re correct in thinking that BOTOX may cause

Answer: Can Botox cause facial muscles to weaken and then result in my face sagging? Thank you for your question. In smaller muscles such as the muscles you have described, no. Botox will not cause sagging of the skin. Your best option would be to speak in person with an expert injector and discuss your problem areas. All the best,

Answer: BOTOX AND FACIAL SAGGING It is the opposite, Botox is used to decrease the action of specific muscles that create fold or wrinkles. There are many facial muscles that will pull down some facial structures like the brows and jaw line, and then give an older or tired look on a patient. By using Botox wisely, you can avoid sagging on your brows, or along the jawline and neck, preserving a youthful appearance.

Answer: Can Botox cause facial sagging? If performed properly, no. The loss of elasticity we experience with aging is an issue intrinsic to the skin not the facial muscles. If Botox is used to carefully target facial muscles your face will not say or droop.
