This my first time getting Botox and my last. I lost my natural arch but not only that when i but pressure on them they feel sore as if they are bruised. Is this normal due to the paralysis? Will my beautiful brow arch come back or will my muscle continue to be weak due to it not working for so long?

Answer: Unhappy with Botox? Results resolve in 3-4 months Some tenderness can be typical and it can take up to 2 weeks for final results. If you're unhappy with your final results, Botox results gradually resolve over 3-4 months. You will regain your eyebrow arch as results resolve. Hope this helps.

Answer: Complications after Botox Dear chrissa2009,Your brows can drop if your forehead was overinjected or too close to your eyebrows. There is a nerve at the medial eyebrow that irritated (from a deep injection - not indicated) can produce an achy, bruised feeling. These symptoms should get better over time.I would not let one bad experience discourage you from Botox. Make sure you are going to a qualified injector, such as a board certified plastic surgeon. An intimate knowledge and experience of facial anatomy is necessary to get the best results with Botox and to have a pleasant experience. Good luck.Nirmal R.
