What can be done for herniated fat pads after Botox? I had Botox in July for the first time to 11’s, forehead and crows feet. It’s now going on six months and it’s the same, if not worse. I have also developed grooves/lines on cheeks almost like a pocket. Some twitching/tingling in the eye area these last two weeks. I really don’t want to go down the filler route. It is causing me a lot of anxiety and wish I’d never got it done. I look so much worse.

While it’s hard to tell from your photos, this does not appear to be an area treatable with Botox. Botox is limited to treating the area between the brows, the forehead and the crows feet on the outer part of the eyes.
Masseter botox works by causing atrophy to the masseter muscle. This results in a thinner looking face because the muscle isn't as bulky. It does not do anything to the bone.
Hi, thank you for your question! Yes, botox and filler can be done while taking blood thinners. Your risk of bruising after injections may increase due to the blood thinner. I would recommend taking arnica tablets a couple of days before and after. I would not stop your blood thinners for any...
