Corrugator muscles sore & seem more prominent/tensed after recent Botox. Is retreatment necessary? How long until it improves?

Can make out outline of corrugator muscles after receiving 14 units of Botox 4 days ago to treat single crease btwn brows. They were not noticeable to me before & the area feels tight/sore as if muscles are really tense and can't relax (opposite of what I thought Botox was supposed to do). RN says muscles possibly sore just due to being poked w/needle. Zero improvement noticed yet and area is sore. Should I wait longer? Retreat? Visit different Dr./RN? Unhappy so far and don't know what to do.
