I am 11 days post-botox treatment only for frownlines. I see some improvement, but also very slight swelling/widening of my nose bridge right between eyes and area between eyebrows that probably only I can notice. But it is definitely there and worrisome because I can't tell yet if 1) it has stablized or 2) if it will continue to worsen if the botox is not finshed doing its work. If it has stabilized will what I see remain as is until the botox itself wears off in 3+ months?

Answer: Swelling following Botox
Any side effects experienced are associated with the injection site, and may include the following:
1) Slight bruising
2) Swelling
3) Temporary ptosis (drooping of the eyelid)
4) Allergic reaction at the injection site
5) Muscle stiffness near the injection site
6) Headache
Swelling and movement of your brows towards your ears may cause the illusion of a wider nasal bridge. The side effects are temporary, and after the Botox has worn off it is not likely you will experience any residual side effects. Thanks and I hope this helps!

Answer: Subtle Swelling After Botox. How Long Will it Remain? ANS:
Swelling after Botox is usually due to the fluid used to mix the product and it normally subsides in hrs to maybe a day or two. You could be noticing muscle not smoothing out evenly as it normally should so I recommend going back to let your Nurse Injector or Doctor take a look since they may be able to make things better for you.
