I loved my eye brow shape before BOTOX. I am a chronic migraineur and BOTOX brings immense relief. But, it distorts the brow shape, even when the dr injects high in the forehead. Is there anything to be done? Besides being distorted, the brows are not symmetrical between L and R.

Answer: I use Botox for migraine prevention but it distorts my eyebrows, is there a way around that? I think you can have a conversion with your injector and discuss the issue with the eyebrows and show them the photos. It's possible with very careful technique some of the changes can be lessened and perhaps you will feel more satisfaction.Good luck, Dr. ALDO

Answer: Botox and migraines So I would suggest you see the board certified plastic surgeon who has experience treating migraines with Botox. There are other surgical techniques the plastic surgeons have which can permanently remove the nerves that trigger the migraines. This would allow you not to get the field effect of Botox across her forehead and would leave your eyebrow shape as is. I personally know that Botox works great for migraines but with long-term use it may be more cost-effective to consider a surgical procedure. Best of luck, Dr. Boschert
