After receiving Botox on my forehead and the sides of my eyes, within the first 2 hours post-Botox, I received some bad news from family, and cried a lot. I couldn't help it. But I didn't rub the Botox areas, or my eyes. Tears just flowed profusely and I just tried my best to wipe them away without rubbing. Will this affect Botox results?
