I am only in my 20's and previously have gotten botox on my forehead one and cortisone acne shots in my forehead and wonder if this was the cause of the bumps as I don't feel like I had them before. Would botox help fix these bumps or do I need something else?

I published a paper reporting a series of persistent ptosis cases after Botox treatment. In one case it took 12 months for the ptosis to resolve. Be patient and don’t do more service now which will only confuse things.
