I am 51, on tamoxifen. Can I do Botox or would a HIFU facial be better?

Question

I have wrinkles on forehead and one between brows I would like to tackle. I also get puffy eyes underneath. I am 51.

Women at menopause have a tendency to retain fluids- under eye area being very common
In general Botox cosmetic is very safe to inject in glabella and forehead, caution when injecting the crows feet- an experienced injector will provide you with a  best technique
Under eye area may respond well to heat based therapies and consistent home care
Good luck

Thank you for your question. Forehead and glabella (between the brows) wrinkles are usually best treated with Botox injections. It is safe to do Botox while taking tamoxifen. Please see an expert in your area for a proper consultation and treatment plan. All the best, Dr. Michon
