Hello, Had botox in May only it lasted 6 weeks!! The nurse I spoke to thinks it maybe due to the fact that I workout a lot,( fitness instructor.) I had 40 units in May, she thinks we should try 50 units spread between, forehead, 11's, Crows feet, and bunnys. Only had glabella, crows feet, and bit to even brows, done in May. Have uneven heavy brow as is, worried she will leave me too frozen and heavier, causing a droop. About 30 units to forehead,11's, and to even brows too much for me?

Answer: Results with Botox/Xeomin/Dysport--add fillers, lasers and microneedling/prp Additional Botox may give some improvement. Deeper wrinkles need a combination approach with Botox and lasers, microneedling/prp and fillers. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Botox wearing off in 6 Weeks Thanks for your question. In some patients, Botox in more readily metabolized than others but in majority cases, patients merely get a lower dose. As mentioned, for your glabellar region, crow's feet, forehead and bunny lines, you would need 60-70 units of Botox. Many people would even do more than this without looking frozen. It also relates to the method of injecting Botox. Placing Botox in muscles, deeper than muscles, or superficial to it will have varying effects. Correct dilution with an appropriate diluting solution is essential for optimal results. Different skin regions need a slightly altered technique for desirable results. In the right hands, there certainly is no harm in injecting 50 units in a repeat treatment. I always advise to consult an expert cosmetician for desirable prognosis.I hope this helps.
