Can anything be done to fix bad botox results? I ended up with the dreaded 'Dr Spock' brow. (photos)

Asked By:SadieannH in Sheffield uk

I had botox just over 2 weeks ago, once it took effect, I ended up with the dreaded 'Dr Spock' brow. But also, a drooping, heavy brow in the middle? I had 20 units in my frontalis and 20 units in my glabella. I went back 2 days ago and had a top up of 8 units. 2x2 units above each brow arch, I feel this has made me look even worse?! Is there anything that can be done to give my eyes a more softer look? My eyelids seem to have gone very low and heavy also. Any advice would be much appreciated.
