Why isn't Botox/Dysport not working for me? I'm new to these injections. Do bigger foreheads need more work? (photo)

Asked By:feme88 in San Jose, CA

Long story short, two months ago I had 30 units of Botox done for the first. I'm trying to prevent my frown lines from forming. Two weeks later pass by and it looks like nothing hasn't changed. I was able to freely move my forehead with out any resistance. Then about a week ago I got 14 units of Dysport and that hasn't responded all that well either. My Dr said either I need more than average person, or that my body is rejecting it. Why would I need more than average person?
