I had Botox 72 hours ago. When forehead is at rest, looks exactly the same as prior to Botox. When I raise my eyebrows, my forehead looks indented in a V shape. Should I give this longer to settle or go back to my provider?
Answer: V Formation After Botox I usually recommend that my patients wait 10 days to let the treatment fully take effect. Any early adjustments can make the brow look overly heavy, or may not achieve the desired result because the final result is still evolving. If patients are not satisfied with the results after 10 days, adjustments or touch-ups might be possible depending on the patient and their goals. Be sure to use an expert physician injector.All the best,

Answer: Botox is still taking effect Hi,Thank you for your question and sharing your photos.I encourage you to wait 2 weeks as it takes about 2 weeks for the full effect of botox. The forehead muscle may continue to relax over the next few days. Early touch ups can result in forehead heaviness. If you're still having a contour irregularity when raising your eyebrows at 2 weeks, a few more units can be injected to relax the lower part of the frontalis muscle.Hope this helps!

Answer: Botox Final results for Botox can take up to two weeks to be seen. I recommend giving it a little more time. If after two weeks you still have concerns, return to your injector for a touch up.

Answer: Effects of botox 72 hours is generally too early for botox to be in full effect. Botox typically takes effect over 5-7 days. Dysport, on the other hand does start working a little bit quicker in the 2-3 day range. You can see some asymmetries and deformities following botox administration, but at this stage I would recommend waiting. I typically have patients come in after 2 weeks for a followup evaluation and any touchups can be performed at that time. That gives time for the botox to kick in, and another week for the patients to be able to see it on a day-to-day basis so that we can make any adjustments necessary, if any. Good luck!
