Should I Still Be Able to Squint and Form the "11"s on Day 8 After Botox?

It can take up to 12 days to see the full effect of Botox, especially if it is your first treatment.  It is possible you may require more units of Botox or the addition of filler to fill in deep creases.  Please see a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon to obtain the best possible results with Botox.

Though most patients do respond after 8 days some can take up to 2 weeks (or more) to see the full effects. Each patient is different and can require a different amount of Botox (greater or lesser units, independent of the number of injection sites).  It's quite possible, especially if you paid by the area and not the unit, that you may not have received a sufficient amount of Botox for that area.  Depending on the policy of the office where you were treated, they may or may not do a touch up dose at no charge.  Follow up with the office that treated you, especially if you still have significant movement between you brows.

Good luck~
