What is the Percentage of Incidences Where Botox is Not Effective at All?

Karmyn Roberts
I recently (about 90 hours ago) had Botox injected into my frown lines and so far there is no change in my frown lines, no hint of paralysis, nothing. Everything seems as it was. I have had Botox 4 times, albeit several years ago, and had great results. Could it be that this dr. did not actually use Boxto? Or could it be that for some reason that it did not "take" this time?
