Why is my Forehead Region Still So Mobile After Botox Injection Post 9 Days?

Would say that if you have mobility in the forehead, your injector has done a great job. The frozen look isn't aesthetically pleasing. You can see many examples of poorly injected Botox by watching TV newscasters. By targeting the depressor muscles, I can achieve reduction of furrows without the frozen look. It takes more skill in injection technique and more time to analyze and inject, but produces an excellent result.

It usually takes at least 4 days to start and see results.  Sometimes it takes longer.  Botox can be different in individual patients.  Best to contact your injector and let him/her know your concerns.

Some lines go away immediately after Botox or Dysport injections in the forehead, but others can be  unchanged if the muscle is not adequately relaxed with the treatment. This can be due to not enough units being used, or not enough time to allow it to work such as two or more weeks, or the physician was cautious and wanted to start off slowly and not drop your forehead which could lower your eyebrows. Furthermore, if there was adequate treatment and the muscles are relaxed, some patients creases are there from so many years of forehead contraction that the creases are very deep and the skin will take time to have the wrinkles fade now that the muscle is not making the overlying skin crease repeatedly.  If the latter is the situation, then your doctor will want to reinject your Botox in about three or four months the latest, before the effect wears off and your skin creases again with the muscle movement.
