Not a cleanser reaction. clearly in the shot pattern. I have had Botox injections for years , and will not stop because of this. I always get them, regardless which doc is doing the injections. I had the pimples cultured by my derm and no bacteria showed up. I see here several folks over the years with the same problem, but all the docs say it doesn't happen. Docs, you may have patients that have this but that are not reporting it to you, as it is minor and happens a while after the injections.

Answer: Why does Botox cause small whiteheads at sites 2- 4 wk post injection, including at the base of the skull?
Juvederm is a great product for injecting the marionette lines. There may be a tiny bit of asymmetry but you don't look ready for the injections yet. Use sunscreen and retinoids to prevent future aging. For now I would not get any injections.
Botox and the skin tightening work in different ways, so it's fine to have these two treatments within a few days of each other. Get the skin tightening first, and when your skin is no longer irritated, get the Botox.
