Why is my skin not mattified after micro-botox? I still have excessive oil production in the areas injected.

Asked By:paula123456 in Los Angeles, CA

I've been trying micro-botox for pore reduction, on my nose and cheeks, for over a year now. I'm still not seeing results, but what I don't understand is - if the doctor is injecting my facial sweat glands, why do I continue to have such an oily nose and cheek area? Should I not have a more mattified result?
