Botox wearing off in six weeks?

March 28, 2016
Asked By:AnnaSeattle in Seattle, WA

I went to a new doctor and had Botox on the forehead, 11's, and crow's feet exactly 6 weeks ago. Initially, it was beautiful. But now, I have creasing and significant movement on all areas. Have used Botox for years and am very used to how this product works for me. It's never worn off this fast, usually lasts 3 months. Is it possible the doctor diluted the botox? Or, could this be injection technique? Or, am I now metabolizing it faster? Just want to know before I go back and ask the doctor.
