I thought it was a zit so I picked it, bad idea.. Now I think it may have been a injection site from yesterday's Botox. I had Botox injected to raise my brow and prevent lines in my forehead.Should I seek emergency medical attention? I also have a headache. This has never happened and I have been getting Botox for 7 years. Thanks

Answer: Pimple after Botox Picking at an injection site is not a great idea, but I doubt it will result in anything different than picking at a pimple or scab on your skin. If Redness, Swelling, Increasing Pain progress at the site, then I would be concerned for infection. If this is the case, go back to the practitioner who injected you. They will be more familiar with your medical history and the procedures you've had.
