I've used botox with wonderful results. Suddenly it stopped working. I've since went to other drs. too and the botox do not take effect. The last dr. I've been to, used botox and not Dyssport. It took effect on my crows feet area but not my frown and forehead. She injected more botox after 2 weeks, she thought perhaps she used too little units. After another 2 weeks she injected more, and now after another 2weeks, it seems that it still hasn't taken effect. Am I resistant all of a sudden?
Answer: Botox Thank you for your question in regards to Botox. Developing a resistant to Botox is rare, although it is possible. Typically more units are recommended to achieve your desired goal. Also, depending on the dilution of the Botox could have an effect as well. To be sure, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a

Answer: What could be possible reasons for my botox not working? Thank you for your question. If you have had injections administered by a few doctors and have had no results, it can be possible that you are resistant. It may help to inject a larger amount. Always see a board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist. Regards,

Answer: Resistance: Botox stopped working after multiple injections. Developing a resistance to Botox is a rare occurrence. I have personally have never seen it, as the patients I see have all responded to a reinjection with more units of Botox. It is described as occurring in patients who have had many, frequent, and high-dose treatments. The idea is that your body has produced antibodies that inactive the medication by binding to it. Some recommend switching from Botox to Dysport or Xeomin. Some recommend taking a break from injections. Neither are supported by published research. I would recommend collecting all of your records and reviewing them with a trained specialist in your area. They can help confirm the resistance to Botox.
