Can someone please explain what happens to weakened muscles as botox wears off. I've had bad headaches after botox.

I'm worried when it starts to wear off if my muscles will now be too tight causing worse headaches.I'm currently 4 weeks post op. This is my first treatment. 15 units in 11 lines and 15 in forehead.
