Greetings Physician’s, I have acquired bilat brow lumps post Botox. Looking back on photos it appears the have been present. Although, have increased in size over time. I have been told this may be related to the corrugator muscle/s. My Derm/PS report they are now aware of the cause. It isn’t painful. Hard surface when touched. It’s becoming increasingly bothersome. Kindly provide potential cause and solution. With respect for your time

You don’t say how long ago your injections were, but in general pain and a loss of your natural “arch” is not unusual. The pain should leave in a few days, but the arch may take a few months to come back.
With lubrication it is important to do this regularly. The thicker the preparation, the longer it will last. So at the thinner end, you have hypromellose, systane etc. You can buy a gel (eg clinics), which is intermediate and a paraffin based ointment (eg lacrilube, simple eye ointment)...
