Unable to squint my eye after forehead botox procedure 4 months ago - advice?

Hello @jk929 Botox effect is not permanent, it takes 3 months approximately for botox effects start disappearing. The effect is progressive, that means when you have botox it will not have a blocking effect the instant the you had it applied or the next day, you start seeing the effects 3 days after the application and the same thing happens when the botox is wearing off. You will go back to normal, I suggest you wait til the effects disappear and go to another board certified specialist to treat lines in forehead. Botox is a miraculous substance, the secret is in the application technique. Best of luck! Alan Gonzalez MD

Hello!
Assuming your eye was over-treated with botox or treated to close to the Orbital rib, you most likely will be able to contract the muscle around your eye with time. It is not uncommon to not be able to squint as intense after botox, but if you are having issues with dry eyes or your eyes not able to fully close when you are asleep you should consult an eye specialist to avoid any problems.
If this does not resolve withing a few more weeks, I would suggest going back to your provider or a cosmetic specialist to do more in depth evaluation.
Good luck!
