Can I receive a Botox touch up before the recommended two weeks, if so what are the risks?

Asked By:melissajym in Pittsburgh, PA

I’m a regular user of Botox and just saw a new provider/new office. During the consult I told her I’ve always had 28-30 units for the glabella/forehead lines. She insisted on doing only 14 even though I’d always been very happy with my usual. I listened to the provider and got what she said. Upon thinking about it, I didn’t get what I asked for, I asked to come back the next day to get the additional 16u. They’re fighting me on this? Would it be ok cosmetically to retouch after one week?
