I had Botox done on Thurs. Today I had my eyebrows threaded. Now my eyebrow area is lumpy and puffy and covering part my eye.

Dear bcprincess04,Botox is generally an on off switch for muscle activity. I get a fair amount of actors/actresses in my practice that are looking to reduce wrinkles but keep some expression. Finding an experienced physician injector is your best bet.Most of patients see first changes after 4-7 days and the final results after 10-14 days.It depends on the amount of Botox and area where it is injected but it usually last for 3-4 months.Daniel Barrett, MD

This is difficult to answer without pictures. I recommend following up with your injector. Venus legacy treatments may give improvement. Best, Dr. Emer

Hi and thank you for your question. It is hard to say without seeing you, however it sounds as though you may have had your threading done too soon, which could potentially have moved the product placement. This could then result in a ptosis (droop) of the eyebrow or eyelid.
I would advise you to return to the clinic that performed your treatment, as there are ways to reverse a droop.

Wishing you all the best,

Stay absolutely safe and well,

Thank you for your question bcprincess04. I understand your concern. Botox is a purified protein used to address wrinkles associated with facial expression. When injected into the skin Botox will relax the muscles and smoothen out the overlying wrinkles. The most common areas of treatment are in the upper face. These include the horizontal lines seen on the upper forehead when one raises the brows, the vertical lines seen between the brows when one frowns (frown lines), and the crow's feet seen around the eyes when one smiles.It is difficult to make an assessment without a formal exam in the office where I can view the skin in multiple angles and observe wrinkles formed with facial expression. However, I hope the information provided here is useful.Treatments such as laser resurfacing, chemical peels, and threading can lead to swelling. For my patients who experience swelling I recommend that they apply cold compresses such as ice packs on and off for 5 minutes at a time, sleep with the head elevated on an extra pillow if not uncomfortable, and reduce the intake of salty foods. Steroids such as a medrol dose pack can be used if these measures do not help after a few days.Please consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!

Without a good set of photographs or an in-person consultation, it is difficult to answer your question. You can always pay a visit to the Doctor Who treated you. Good luck from New York City

When you combine multiple procedures in a similar area it make sense to have more swelling. Botox itself doesn’t typically cause much swelling at all.Good news, swelling is temporary.Try cold compresses, take Motrin as px. Choose an expert. Best. Dr Brecht Seattle, Wa
