I read a lot of stories about eyelid droopy after botox, so I only injected 11 line between brows for the first time I did my botox. Today is day 4 and I noticed that both inner eyelid puffy and droopy. But rest of the eyes are okay and in perfect condition. My question is that is it possible to have both INNER eyelid only droopy after botox? I don't know if I truly had ptosis or maybe my eyes are just doing tricks on me? please advice. thanks
