Will getting botox in the same area you have filler affect the filler? I have filler in an oval shape in my forehead to fill in a deep scar. It has been 6 months.. I got botox yesterday just in between my eyebrows but she also went a little above my eyebrow where I had wrinkles, and it mixed into the area I have filler. I feel like there is a dime sized lump now around the prick where I had the filler. is this just swelling?
