I know my treatment for Botox for migraines was not done for cosmetic use but now my forehead looks like it’s frozen in the glabella area and above that I can still move the other forehead muscles creating that sharpay dog look. I was told it takes 2 weeks to notice full effects for migraine, I’m hoping it’s the same for my lines. I just did treatment 7 days ago.

Answer: Botox for Migraines Thank you for your message! Botox relaxes muscles and diminishes muscle movement. By doing so, active lines are diminished and over time resting lines soften as well. It can be used for migraines as well. If migraine Botox is placed into typical "cosmetic" areas, care must be taken as to avoid adverse side effects such as dropping brows/lids and must be take to create an appealing cosmetic outcome. Botox takes about 10-14 days to fully kick in. Once it has been that amount of time I would recommend following up with your provider with any concerns!

Answer: Botox result Hello and thank you for your question. The injection pattern and dosing for migraines is different than cosmetic botox. Typically it does take 10-14 days for full result, however some patients can see/feel results sooner. It looks like you may need a small dose of botox lower down on the bridge of the nose. This will help your overall aesthetic result. Follow up with your provider to discuss concerns and questions. Good luck I hope this helps!!
