Can a doctor always tell if you had botox?

Asked By:Prettyfrog in New York, NY

Hi, I (38) had botox for the first time and love the results so far. I'm am still able to move my eyebrows, but there are no more frown lines and my eyebrows are slightly lifted. (they were very very slight before, so not a huge change) I did not tell my husband, as he is against botox. Next week his best friend, who is a dermatologist will visit us. I am panicking that he sees that I had botox and will tell my husband. So question is: can skin experts always see if you had botox? Best Prettyfrog
