I got botox today and i went to a new doctor since i moved, the first time i got botox he injected at the 5 typical injection sites that you can find in a simple google search, 4 units in each spot and the results were perfect, exactly what i wanted. This new doctor injected in slightly lower and different spots and I'm worried I'll have droopy eyes. Here's a picture showing where he injected. 2.5 units at the outside sites, 6 at the beginning of the eyebrows and 8 in the middle.
Answer: Botox injections with a new physician I practice in an area where a large portion of the population either come from other locations to relocate or are travelling here for only a brief time. Botox injections can seem formulaic and that is why many non plastic surgical specialties are comfortable offering Botox injections. Every individual is slightly different. When a patient who has had Botox in the past is seeing me for the first time I ask if they were happy with their prior treatment outcomes. If the answer is yes, then I ask if they have access to their records so that we can duplicate Botox injections they were very pleased with, including location and number of units. If the chart is unavailable, they were not pleased with their prior results, or the units do not seem correct, I will use my experience to inject neuromodulators in the areas they would like treated with the amount and locations I have been most successful with. I would ere on the side of conservatism in first time patients.

Answer: Did my doctor inject botox too close to my eyelids? Will I get droopy eyes? Thank you for your excellent question. Each new physician that you have perform Botox will have slightly different injection techniques as well as concentration and total unit amounts. Since you just had the injections performed today only time will tell what this pattern of injections will have on your appearance. Hang in there!

Answer: Was Botox injected improperly? Thank you for sharing your concerns. If the marked areas were the site of injection, it seems a little low. If he angled the needle or was simply marking the area where he saw the most muscle activity, then the placement might not be at the marks. You will know by seeing the results within a week.Good luck,

Answer: Was Botox injected too close to eyelids? From the photo that you provided that shows your Botox injection points, I would say that it would be unlikely that you would have droopy eyelids as a result of your treatment.
