Which caused bleeding and two bruises and now a crease? I've attached a picture of my forehead and the very visible vertical vein that appeared two days after receiving botox injections on my forehead. I received Botox injections on my forehead 3 days ago. The dr hit a major vein, which caused bleeding and two bruises. I noticed after the 2nd day the vein was very visible and is very indented, causing a visible line or crease. I am freaking out that this will be permanent.
