Botox: eyes feel heavy, my eyebrows are different? (Photo)

It is not uncommon to experience headache and/or a sense of 'brow fatigue' after your first treatment with Botox.  The feeling generally lasts a couple of weeks and doesn't return with later treatments. If you have lost your brow arch, it may be that your dosage was too heavy.  Your frontalis muscle (forehead) is the only muscle that supports your brow and holds it up. You have other muscles that pull your brows downward, including the frown muscles (corrugator and procerus) and the muscles around the eye (orbicularis). These muscles are in a "tug of war" for your brow position and your doctor may need to weaken the "downward" pulling muscles to achieve better muscle balance and brow position. In the future, they can reduce your forehead dose to achieve an ideal result. Even if you do nothing, your forehead will "recover" just a little bit in the next couple weeks and your brow won't feel so heavy. My best to you.

Thank you for your photos. Yes, your eyebrows have dropped and the left brow has especially flattened. You treated the frontalis muscle (which is the muscle that lifts the eyebrows-  when your raise your brows in the pre-photo- those are the lines you wanted to treat). So you will need to just have them treated with less product next time. I would also talk to your doctor about dysport. I really like dysport in the forehead for those horizontal lines. Hope this helps. Good news is that it will wear off. 

Eyelid drooping after neuromodulators like Botox, Dysport or Xeomin is a rare but well described issue, usually resulting from product placement or the amount used. 
The first thing that needs to be determined is whether it is a droopy eyebrow or truly a droopy eyelid. Droopy eyebrows are much more common and result from immobilizing the only muscle on the forehead that is able to lift up our eyebrows. Droopy eyelids come from the product getting into the wrong muscle that elevates the eyelid.
Management of them is quite different, but both have strategies to help expedite resolution while waiting for them to resolve with time, and any experience injector should be very familiar with how to deal with them: drops for the eyelids and precise placement of Botox in the brow depressors when it is an eyebrow issue. To ensure you are receiving the highest level of care, seek out a modernly trained, new-school dermatologic surgeon, oculoplastic surgeon, facial plastic surgeon or plastic surgeon who is board certified and fellowship trained in one of these “core four” cosmetic specialties. Membership in organizations like the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery help to identify a highly trained surgeon.
