Does Botox stop working? (Photo)

Asked By:Purpleskies in New York, NY

I have had botox on my forehead approximately 3 times with good results. I have a lot of deep horizontal wrinkles. The doctor usually uses approx. 60 cc to get the result I like. The past two times, it didn't take at all. Not at ALL...I looked the exact same after two attempts. Why do you think this is? Same doctor and same product.
