A month ago I had 20 in frown and middle forehead it was perfect last week and since I can't touch that area without it slowly bulging up. Even when I wash my face the area starts pulling up :((( its awful it last minute or 2 on the forehead but can last all nightif I rub near my eyebrow & it causes lines in my upper eyelid. What do you think the problem is? The Botox rep just repeated she'd never seen it. I can see the tiny creases on my forehead & frown lines returning already :(

First of all, do you remember how raw or swollen you were after your first CO2 treatment and how many days it took you to recover? it sounds like your'e cutting it quite close to your big wedding day!
I recommend having your Botox done before the procedure, and your fillers done...
The issue you describe is not a common side effect of treatment with Botox, and I would recommend a follow up with your physician if this does not resolve itself within a couple of weeks. Thank you, and I hope this helps!
Thank you for your question! Botox relaxes the muscles that are causing your wrinkles, and once the effect wears off, your muscles will return to their normal functionality and the wrinkles will assume their pre-treatment appearance. Your wrinkles will not look worse, but you may think they do...
