Hello! I’ve been getting Botox a long time and I suppose since then, these tiny raised bumps have sporadically formed in the same area. I didn’t connect the two until a facialist suggested the correlation and said she sees it a lot in people who get Botox as it blocks the pores. She said you can’t extract them but I started differin gel 3 weeks ago -am purging currently. I asked my dermatologist who performs the Botox and he said there’s no connection and it’s down to skincare…who is right?
