I have had a doubles eye lift to help with my vision. I still have the lines on my forehead. I am 39 and they appeared last year. I think they showed up because I was dealing with a stressful time my husband has cancer. So they appeared fast and now want a quick fix. I heard of Botox and just want to know if it last long and the price. I know I will have to save for It.

Answer: Treating horizontal forehead rhytids (wrinkles) with Botox
There are times that when you place Botox and have previous scars or dents, when the skin is "wrinkle-free" from Botox the dents are more noticeable. The wrinkles above the eyebrow seem from the photo like "dents" because you cannot place Botox too low to the eyebrow without causing it to droop.
Botox works extremely well for the Crow's feet which are the lines around the eyes. It can not be used for lines that go down to your cheek since that would paralyze the sides of your face.
Botox generally lasts about 4 months and perhaps a little less around the eyes. If you are unhappy with the injection results I would suggest you returning to your treating physician for evaluation and correction.
