Dents above eyebrows, 6 days post Botox, will this go away?

Question

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?

Hang in there, this is not your final result of this tiny dose of Botox. I would suggest going back to your injector/physician or seeing another injector.  It normally does take 1-2 weeks for final results with Botox. Botox results typically last 3-4 month after they set in.Good luck. Dr. ALDO

It takes 1-2 weeks for final results with Botox. If you're unhappy with your final results, venus legacy can help soften results. Botox results resolve in 3-4 months. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

As noted below it is still "early" after your botox. That being said if there are concerns please contact the physician that administered the units to see if they feel anything else needs to be done. Good luck.

You had a relatively low dose. It can take up to 14 days to see the full results of the Botox treatment. If at that point, you remain unhappy with the positioning of your eyebrows, I would followup with your injector. Eyebrow flaring can be corrected by injecting a small amount of Botox above the arch of the brow.

Indentations after Botox are from recruitment of other muscles and can be easily treated with Botox but if left alone they will go away
