Can someone tell me what has happened here? My forehead looks more like a Klingon than a Spocking issue. Is the fixable? I had Botox last week and it’s looking very strange. I’ve had spocking before from this dr but I’m not sure if this is the same issue.

Answer: Inadequate placement. The lateral corrugators were not injected. It appears your provider only injected the middle muscles (procerus and medial insertion points of the corrugators). Most experienced injectors inject both the medial and lateral heads of the corrugators. When the lateral portions of the corrugator muscles are not injected - you will see the "Klingon" look from the muscles as well as the "Angry Bird" look because your eyebrows will pull down more than usual. If your injector missed the lateral corrugators on your initial treatment - I would consider going to a more experienced provider for correction. The reason is that if the provider is not experienced and goes to0 far laterally or injects too deep - you may end up with bigger problems like an eyelid droop.

Answer: What has Botox done to me? Botox lock the release of a chemical called acetylcholine, which triggers the muscle contractions that create wrinkles. Botox essentially paralyze the muscles and stops them from contracting. Results from these treatments are visible within 3-14 days with results that can last anywhere from 3-4 months. Follow up with your injector to discuss your concerns. It is an easy fix. Hope this helps.
