I've been getting Botox for migraines for 4 years. I recently moved and ever since my treatment here I noticed that my eyebrows are uneven and my eyelids appear heavier. The right brow is higher than the left and lacks arch. My left brow appears lower and heavier. My current neurologist asked for a picture to see if she could correct it. I'm looking to provide her with some helpful information. Perhaps you can offer some advice?

Answer: Botox Results An Experienced injector is crucial to avoid this. This can be avoided with strategically injected Botox or fixed with fillers. Find experienced provider and you should be fine. Good luck!

Answer: Dropped brow from Botox for migraines Dear C.montgomery:This happened because Botox was placed in the frontalis muscle, which when untreated lifts the brows, without treating the glabellar complex, which normally depresses the brows, and because the placement of the Botox in the frontalis muscle was lower than where you had had it previously. You can get a partial but probably not a complete correction of this problem by having some Botox in the procerus muscle, just between the brows, and in the medial and lateral corrugators and depressor supercilli muscle on your right side. The injections in the corrugator muscles must be low, just above the brow, while holding a thumb against the orbital rim and lifting the brow, to prevent further problems. I am glad Botox has helped your migraines. It has so many beneficial medical effects!All the best, Dr. Clark
