After receiving Botox several places on face, total of 32 units, the next morning there was two lumps slightly above eyebrows. No lumps at other injection sites (very top of forehead, corners of eyebrow and chin. Lumps are red and swollen, painful to the touch. Never has happened before. Had Botox done probably 12 times. Usually get a small bruise at injection site. Any ideas?

Answer: Please contact your injector to have this area assessed in person.
Botox can help to improve these lines, also known as lateral rhytids. A
combination treatment of Botox and dermal filler in this area may be even more effective
to help soften the lines in these areas.
Botox will not effect your eye issues, if injected properly by someone experienced. Most often I am using 10-20 units in the forehead, however, what was said below is correct. It varies depending on the effect you are trying to get and whether or not you are trying to change the eye...
