Medial Brow Droop and Overarched Brow from Botox, What Can I do?

January 24, 2012
Asked By:Wes881 in Miami, FL

I had my first Botox treatment 5 days ago in the frontalis (conservatively) and procerus, for horizontal forehead lines. When I raise my brows, the medial brows droop while the arches go high up, creating an angry look. The area over my middle brow looks puffy when arching. I also have a chronic headache and heaviness between and above between the brows, along with a constant pulling feeling above the arches. Is there a way to correct this? I am going for my follow up next week. What can I do?
