What solutions are available if you get a bad Botox injection?

Asked By:Persistent703691 in Los Angeles, California

Last year I had a Botox brow lift, 8 units were injected for each brow. A week later my left eyelid started to droop. At the time the injector said we would need to counteract it by injecting more Botox. I wanted to use dysport since dysport works quicker than Botox but was told we cannot counteract with dysport. It took a week and went back to normal. I am no longer going to this clinic. I was wondering if I can get an opinion on what are all the options I have if I get a droopy eye
