I know you should not have heat on your face for 6 hours after Botox to decrease likelihood of migration. I know that many doctors do IPL 1st followed by Botox same day. My concern is that a common side effect of IPL is inflammation & redness, and these side effects generate heat in your face. I know heat/facial flushing immediately after Botox can cause migration. If IPL is done prior to Botox, will heat generated in face from IPL-related inflammation (side effect) cause Botox migration?

Hello Charloemi,
Great question! You can absolutely Botox these muscles. In fact, this is one of the main targets for most botox treatments. There are three muscle groups that are considered "brow depressors." These include your medial brow depressors (i.e. Corrugator Supercilli and Procerus)...
Hello, thank you for your question. It is hard to tell without a proper examination, I recommend you to schedule a consultation with a local expert injector with extensive experience and training to ensure optimal results and safety.
