Can Anything Be Done to Speed Up the Process of Getting Botox to Leave the Body?

Fiah43
Both brows dropped significantly and I have puffy lids. I look worse! I'm over two weeks out, I had no idea this side effect could happen. Is there anything that can speed the process up of having the botox dissipate? Massage, muscle exercises???? Anything?????
