so why dont doctors explain this beforehand? I got a bit of botox injected to lift my eyebrows. This was two days ago. Since then, my eyes look smaller and my eyelids dropped. Is this permanent? Its like i got the opposite of what I went there for!
Answer: Unhappy with Botox/Xeomin/Dysport--add venus legacy, thermage This could be due to Botox placement. Keep in mind, it will take 1-2 weeks for final results with Botox. If you're unhappy with your final results, venus legacy and thermage treatment can soften results. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Droopy Eyelids after Botox Hi GG. So sorry to hear about your experience. Not sure why this has happened but it sounds like poor technique. Yes, even good injectors have the product migrate too low once in a while, but it does sound like the opposite of what you wanted. With proper injection technique you may be able to get some improvement before the product starts to wear off. With ptosis (saggy brow or eyelids), you should see improvement after about 3-4 weeks. To see an example of what a Botox browlift should accomplish, take a look at the ink below.

Answer: Eye lid droop Sorry to hear you didn't get the desired effect. Typically combination of forehead and glabellar area botox will give you the eye brow lift but sometimes the trickle effect can relax the muscle that elevates the eyelid and usually this is temporary and recovers much faster than the actual botox for the eyebrow lift.

Answer: Droopy Eyes I'm sorry that you got the opposite effect than intended. Botox can give an eyebrow lift with pleasing results if injected properly. However, a known adverse effect of Botox is ptosis or the droopiness. It can either be from:

Answer: Botox brow lift Botox essentially has a push pull effect. The muscles in the forehead lift the brows where as the muscles around the eye pull the brow downward. If you are looking to raise the eyebrow, the injection sight is placed lateral to the eye and slightly below the brow. This will relax the muscle around the eye causing the forehead muscle to pull the brow upwards. Perhaps your injector treated the wrong muscle. Thats unfortunate. Botox is temporary and your brow should restore it's natural position in a couple months. Seeking an experienced provider is essential.
