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.

Thank you for your question. Strategically-placed Botox can help to correct mild degrees of asymmetry that are the result of Bells palsy. Surgery can help to correct greater amounts of asymmetry. An in-person consultation by a board-certified oculoplastic surgeon can help provide more info...
Thank you for your question! It does sound like nerve irritation- if from the botox it should settle but you may need a check up to make sure nothing else is happening - if there is any rash you may have shingles which would need immediate attention. Best of luck!
Thank you for your question. Results vary from patient to patient an can not be guaranteed. It may simply be that you need more units. I would suggest following up with your injector for an evaluation. Best of luck!
