cjean9119
Botox and juvederm years ago with no problem. 2 weeks ago, I started using Zo MEDICAL’s skin lightening system, the mildest products. Wednesday used the exfoliate and my face turned bright red. then had 35 units Botox injected into my forehead area by a certified plastic surgeon. cheeks are red, Face burns, itchy eyes/face , heart palpitations (I get anyway due to anxiety) lips feel tingly, dry mouth, feel like I have flu I’m just scared I’m having a weird reaction to the Botox.
