Does Botox eyebrow peaking go away on its own, or does it always need touch up?

January 12, 2018
Asked By:nyc455 in New York, NY

I've had forehead botox many times, and the result is always the same: within 3 days, everything freezes except the outer brows, giving me Jack Nicholson brows when I lift them. But when not lifting, my brows look great. After 7 days I've always gone back to correct it, but then I'm left with a slightly lower brow overall. Is it a normal part of the process for the outer brows to freeze last? Im wondering if I should just wait longer this time instead of getting the touch up.
