Got Botox 11 days ago in forehead and 11 lines. Now inner brows have dropped and have high arches. Advice? (photos)

This happens because of the placement of botox at certain spots . The high arch eye brows can be easily fixed with some additional botox laterally on the forehead.

This can be improved with a touch-up of Botox. I recommend following up with your injector. Hope this helps.

this can be improved with a small amount of botox above your brows to bring them down. this is a reactive process, your outer brows are becoming more active because the middle brows arent working as much.  Best, Dr. Emer.

In your case - there is too much movement above your lateral eyebrows.   The upper forehead is a tricky area - if it's placed too close to the brow - it will "drop" and feel heavy.  Conversely - if it's not placed in the proper area and it's too far from the brow - then you can "spock".   Also - it appears that your procerus muscle may not have had enough botox so it's causing the "angry bird" appearance by still pulling down.   Only experienced injectors know how to correct this and more importantly - anticipate in new patients who are at risk for this.   The good news is that this can be easily corrected so go back to your provider and see if they can do it.   If they can't - then find a new injector.
Lesson leared:  No 2 botox injectors are the same.   Just like hair stylists - they use the same scissors but if you go to different people - you will get two different results.  

Thank you for sharing your photographs and questions. Botox can be tricky in the forehead. Asymmetrical movements can occur with the eyebrows creating a strange appearance. You need a touch more Botox, especially in the right forehead. Make sure to go to experienced injectors for your treatments.Good luck,

Thanks for sharing your photos.  It appears that there is an imbalance of how the muscles are working.  Botox can be used to raise the eyebrow but if it is not balanced then this result can happen.  On the right side of the forehead, not enough Botox was placed so it appears that there is more movement and wrinkles on this side.  In addition, the Botox used in the frown area (inadvertent placement) most likely accentuated the lift affect on the right brow arch.  What you can do is to inject some more Botox on the right forehead which will relax the Rt forehead muscle and counter the eyebrow lift.  This though has to be placed correctly and a very small amount of Botox be used otherwise you can drop the eyebrow.  Whether you go to the same place (a place you trust) or another experience injector will be up to you.  Good luck.

Thanks for your question.This can sometimes happen especially if you go to a new practitioner for the first time. They are understanding how strong your forehead muscles work. The outer aspect of the forehead muscles are weaker and if the same dose of botox is used here as is centrally then you can get an eyebrow droop. The other reason is the central corrugator muscles are more sensitive in your case and so they have dropped a bit more. Best thing to do is go back to your surgeon/practitioner and get them to have a look and so a top up. This will help to adjust the discrepancy in the lines and the arched effect. The effects are not long standing so will resolve, but with botox, everyone has different muscle strengths and so it is a case of learning how each patients muscles are different. That is why it is best to go to the same person all the time, as they will write down their doses and therefore it reduces the chances of this happening.I hope this helpsBWRohit SethPlastic, reconstructive, aesthetic and hair transplant surgery.

See your provider for a follow up. He or she can add a unit or two laterally to relax the hyper motion you are describing. Hope this helps!

A touch up of Botox can help correct the concern you have with your arch.  If you do nothing the product effects will gradually fade over the next three months.

The dropped central brow and exaggerated brow tail arches can occur for a few reasons.  First off, most Botox injectors are unfortunately taught wrong from the beginning and the package insert which describes the FDA approved brow treatment is cookie cutter one size fits all.  A lot of injectors are taught to treat at least 1 cm away from the eye socket to avoid the Botox from drifting into the upper eyelid or eye muscles and avoid a droopy eyelid or double vision.  However, they sometimes inject too high and into the forehead lifting muscle which weakens it centrally and causes the inner brows to drop over the eyes.  When the upper and central forehead is also treated to soften the horizontal forehead wrinkles, it also causes further weakening and the brows drop even more.  Most times the lateral or outer forehead lifting muscle is left untreated and it overcompensates for the heavy brow, causing the brow tails to lift up and give a creepy Dr. Spock or Cruella DeVille appearance.  I see this unfortunate result all around town to a variety of degrees, which is a telltale sign that you have had Botox.  A touch up treatment can help to soften this result, but an experienced injector should understand the dynamics of agonist - antagonist muscles to avoid this or only have it happen to a mild degree infrequently in predisposed individuals.  Every face is unique and requires an individualized approach.  You will be able to have a very beautiful result with a modified approach next time.  Best wishes.
