Glabella movement after two botox appointments-botox injected in forehead, not in glabella. Is this why? (Photo)

Thank you for your question.  It is difficult to know exactly where the Botox was injected based on your description.  However, it appears from your picture that the Botox was not injected into the glabella, and therefore you will still have movement there.  I try to be as specific as I can with my patients as to their goals for the injection, so we get it right the first time!  I would discuss your concerns with your injector, as well. I hope that this helps!-David Gilpin

From your photo it looks like the Botox wasn't injected into the correct muscles. You need to revisit this with your doctor. Some folks need stronger doses than others, so it's not unusual to require touch ups. Good luck!

It sounds like the injection wasn't placed well.  I would follow up with your Dr to get clear on your desired results and how to achieve them. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for your question.  Botox placed in the frontalis, and not directly into the procerus and corrugator muscles (the glabella area), will not soften the glabella.  I wish you good luck with future injections.

It appears only your forehead was injected and not your glabella (11’s). These two areas work together and when only one is injected it can result in the glabella lines (11’s). I recommend consulting with an expert and having additional Botox injected into the glabellar area.  Best of Luck!
