Overly arched brow from Botox from 6 days ago.

First I will caution you that it takes 2 weeks to see the final result from Botox.  However, your description of dosing is suggestive of under-treatment based on Allergan therapeutic doses.  A patient requesting  brow, crows feet and lateral brow elevation would typically receive about 50 units in my hands.  The odd arching you are describing is known as a "Mephisto" line related to inadequate treatment of the lower lateral frontalis muscle.  This is very fixable with more Botox. In my opinion, it is always better to have a complete treatment than a half-baked result and a confused patient. 

From what you are explaining it sounds like this could be corrected easily with a few units of botox in the lateral areas to relax the strong pull.   I would wait another week as sometimes it takes a full two weeks for the botox to fully kick in .     Good luck ! 

Thank you for your question.  An over-arched brow can easily be fixed with an additional few units to the frontalis muscle (forehead).  My advice is to follow-up in one week for evaluation and adjustment.  Best of luck.

easy fix... don't wait for it to improve... return to your injector for a little more botox "touch-up".

Your forehead is unnecessarily paralyzed.  The pattern is causing recruitment of the lateral frontalis muscle, which is probably the only thing still working.  It is possible to impose a correcting treatment using the Microdroplet Lift® at the eyebrows but this should wait until some of the treatment you have just had begins to where off.  That will be in about 4 to 6 weeks.  Without a correcting service, this forehead appearance will persist for several months.

Yes, Botox results take 1-2 weeks. Botox results last up to 3-4 months and can be softened with venus legacy and thermage treatments. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Dear SallyAnne,Botox is generally an on off switch for muscle activity. I get a fair amount of actors/actresses in my practice that are looking to reduce wrinkles but keep some expression. Most of patients see first changes after 4-7 days and the final results after 10-14 days. I would suggest you to wait to see the final results.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

This can happen, and is the easiest problem to fix.  Just go back and let your injector add a tad above the arch.  

This over arched brow can happen. It is easy to fix and just takes a few units. Be sure to go to an experienced injector.It won't affect your forehead.

It sounds as though the "joker" look bothers you so I wouldn't wait till it wears off in 3-4 months. Corrective Botox is the way to go! It will require a small amount which shouldn't freeze your forehead but will restore your confidence and help you look your best.As with all cosmetic treatments, the skill of the doctor is of utmost importance. Don't trust your face to just anyone! Consult with an expert in facial aesthetics to maximize your results while minimizing side effects. You'll be happier and save money in the long run.
