Xeomin injected for my 11s lines caused the inner eyebrows to drop. Can this be fixed?

Neuromodulators, such as Botox, Dysport and Xeomin received their first FDA cosmetic indications for these "11 " lines, what your physician will likely refer to as your glabella. What you are describing is unfortunately not uncommon, the dreaded Spock. Some of that neuromodulator likely diffused into the frontalis, the muscle allowing you to lift up your forehead and brows. When the middle part of this muscle is inactive, it makes the lateral portions seem overactive, and less the lateral part of your eyebrow elevates, giving the Spock.The good news is, it can easily be corrected. A few units of the neuromodulator of your doctor's choice in the lateral part of the forehead can solve this.

Thanks for your question. It is difficult to help you without photos or examining you myself. I would recommend seeing your injector 2 weeks after any injection. 2 weeks allows time for swelling to go away and for the neurotoxin to kick in. In most cases, more neurotoxin can help with peaked eyebrows and residual wrinkles. Good luck!

Thank you for your question about Xeomin.You may need some additional Xeomin injected to the outer eyebrow.  Pictures would be helpful.

To be sure, return to see your injector or see two or more experienced, licensed
and board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make
sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment.

I hope this helps.

If your browns dropped after injection for the frown lines between your eye brows then most likely it was not injected into the correct muscle.  The muscles that create the "11" lines between the brows work to lower the brows.  So injections into these muscles should actually makes the brows go up.  If the brown went down then the xeomin was injected into the wrong place.  The only way to "fix" this is to give it time for the xeomin to wear off.

Hi Ro,I am sorry you are having a problem.  I believe this can be modified, and we often do this on our own patients.  Nothing the matter with taking it all in steps a week apart.  All the best, "Dr. Joe"
