I am currently not on any meds bcus we are still feeling my amount of medication out. I do have graves disease and when I do take my meds, I take methimazole 5mg. Per day. 10 mg. Per day made me go hypothyroid. Is it safe for me to get 20 units of botox and one syringe of juviderm at the same appointment? I am 27 years old and this will be my first time getting any injectable. Thank you.

Answer: With stable Grave's disease this should not be a problem.
We typically recommend a 2 week period before doing any touch-ups. It is normally an easy thing to address and can be remedied. I recommend following up with your injector and discussing your concerns. Most providers are more than happy to make a correction if needed.
Thank you for the picture.You are either experiencing eye-LID droop or eye-BROW droop. It is difficult to assess from this picture, but you likely have eye-BROW drop. I would return to your injecting physician for a complete exam to determine which of the two you have, because...
Regardless of common knowledge, unless you get a written statement from the manufacturer it is unlikely that any US doctor will knowingly inject an expired drug. Good Luck
