Is it possible my injector missed the muscle when injecting Botox?

Asked By:Gregarious3581 in Ontario, CA

This is my 3rd time having Botox and the first time I’ve experienced these results. It’s day 5 and I’m nicely frozen everywhere except for my right outer eyebrow. Looks very strange when I frown as only the one eyebrow will move. I totally understand the need to wait two weeks (and I will) but I am certain this will not freeze as it hasn’t at all (not even a little) yet. Also... had a bruise under my eyebrows on this side post injection which has never happened before.
