Had botox, for the first time, in my 11s on the 9th. There is a small sore bump or raised area above my left eyebrow. Advice?

No worries, nothing will happen. The bump will go away soon enough. I would wait a week or so before doing any deep massage or exfoliation.

Thank you for your question. You are early in your post procedure course. Usually the patient sees the start of the neuromodulators, (Botox Dysport, Xeomin), working at day 4.  The fillers usually see some result early, but some modulation continues.  In our office we have patients come back at 2 weeks for their check on their neuromodulator or filler.  At that point, most of the swelling is usually down, and we have an idea of the result.  This may be delayed if the patient has a bruise.  Often, asymmetry can be improved.  If you desire more volume, most practices would charge you, as they have to pay for the product, etc.  Please make sure your well trained, experienced injector knows your current status.Jeffrey J.

Small bumps following Botox injections are usually the result of a small bruise or collection of blood beneath the skin and in the muscle.  The bump is safe to massage two days following Botox injections without any risk of side effects.  Be patient and any irregularities will resolve in time.  Facials are probably safe after three or four days following Botox injections with care around the injection sites.
