I received Botox 6 days ago. 5 units across my forehead and 5 units at the glabella. The wrinkles in my forehead have extremely softened. The glabella still looks the same though. My concern is that today I noticed that if I raise my eyebrows (which have more movement now) I have what looks like indents above the arch of my eyebrows. My boyfriend describes it has devil horns. Is the Botox still settling? I go back in a week. If there are still there can my doctor do more to make them go away?

You can have a small amount of Botox injected into the DAO muscles to slightly elevate the corners of the mouth. Only 5 units or so are needed. Find a Board Certified and experienced injector to work with in your area.
