I had botox done to my forehead and crows feet area two weeks ago. I went skiing today for several hours and wore a new ski mask (ski goggles). It has been six hours and the mark on my forehead from the mask is still there. It is very long and deep. As if my forehead is divided in two. Is this permanent? Is this due to the botox? I have never had this happen before with any ski mask, usually the mark goes away within an hour.
