Botox for the first time 3/20. Forehead/frown lines. Now with R eyelid drooping x3 days. Contacted injecting MD to ask for Apraclonidine 0.5% solution. RN informed me he doesn't prescribe it. Stated it will wear off, suggested I go to my PCP. I don't have a PCP, I rarely go to the Dr. (trauma RN, we are the worst patients). I don't want to look crazy for months. It's worth a try to me, ANY improvement would be better than this. How do I get the RX if injecting MD won't prescribe it?

Thank you for your question. Yes, Botox can be used to help improve the bulge between your brows. Typically, results last 3-4 months. I recommend having a consultation with an expert injector to determine the best treatment plan for you. Best of Luck!
Thank you for your question and I am sorry to hear about your experience. If the DAO muscles are not injected properly, other muscles that help movement in the lips may be affected and cause the issue you have described. Unfortunately, there is no way to reverse the effects of Botox and you will...
