Had done Botox to: Frown lines, dot to lift brows at outer edges, Crows feet, One dot on each lower lash line. Now when I smile my eye crease has lowered and makes me look worse. Happy with other face areas. Realise will have to wait until wears off, will it take a whole three months? If I were to Botox again is it the crows feet or lash line or both that's caused it? 3 days post Botox

Answer: Botox in Lower lid Hi Flowerfairy8, Botox when injected in excess in the lower lids can lead to those creases. Since Botox's effects wear off gradually and not suddenly and you don't need the effect of the injected Botox to wear off 100% before you see a significant improvement in your lower lid creases, I anticipate that you will see a significant improvement in those lines in as early as 4 to 8 weeks. You can continue to receive Botox for your Crows feet, just don't have it done in the lower lids.

Answer: Botox to lower lid made creases worse I see you problem and agree it is much worse than before. Your doctor needs to see this. There is no correction for this other than time. Think of the lower lid as a sling and when weakened, the orbital contents can fall out a bit. Your lids need the tension to look good. It won't take 3 months to get better because Botox gradually wears off, not abruptly.
