Botox + Movement Q&A

I just used a facial razor to dermaplane my face 8 days after receiving Botox in my forehead, glabella, and chin. There's mixed opinions online about when is okay to do this... some say a week and others two. What is the risk that I've actually moved the product around?

Ive recently had Botox in my forehead, and my brows feel heavy and like they have dropped. I usually look a lot more awake when I have movement in my eyebrows, as I raise them ever so slightly. Now after botox, my eyebrows are locked into a lower, less awake looking position. Id love to raise the inner areas to create a straighter, more open brow. Is this possible with Botox?

Can your forehead still move after forehead Botox injections? Im afraid of the frozen look.

I have had botox on my forehead, which i have had before and always asked for a small amount to allow me to still move my forehead but just minimise the obvious lines in order to prevent more in the future. I hav used someone i have used before but its left me completely FROZEN with zero movement and feels very heavy. I am an actress and have a show in 8 weeks which i discussed with my Dr who said that would be fine. Is there a way for me to get movement back fast? (weeks :/)

Hello, I am a 31 year old female. I first received Botox at age 28. The first 4-5 times, it worked very well and I was quite frozen. However, in the past year, I have noticed my face starts moving by week 3 and full movement by week 8. Very frustrating. I have tried the 3 other major brands as well and increased units. Someone suggested to me that perhaps my Covid vaccine has something to do with it. Has anyone experienced this issue with their patients? Any suggestions?

- Does botox injection have any side effect? - Will botox effect the muscle movement around the areas of injection? - any alternative treatment? and how to avoid its occurrence again

I had my Botox done on Monday. 96 hours ago and one crows feet has taken pretty much straight away and the other hasnt. Ive had a lot more movement then before so I think shes used something different. Will this even out or do I need a top up?

Hello, I came in two weeks ago for my first Botox treatment. My main concern was the eyes specifically crows feet. Overall I'm happy but completely satisfied. Right under my eyes the wrinkles are accentuated. Not sure if its due to shifted/different muscle movement, or just looks this way because they're more in focus. I can tell my cheeks also push up the area, so some wrinkles are just there, however I am wondering if there is something more that can be done? Thank you,

I get Botox and have noticed that my mid-forehead gets very smooth while I have three deep-ish wrinkles above each brow. Is this normal if I want to keep movement of my brows?

32 year old Female.I have been getting Botox since I was 28. I've gone twice now to a reputable MD derm in my city for Botox. Price is flat few $600 for a full area. I was treated with what she called baby Botox. It's been almost 7 weeks and I can fold my forehead quite a bit. I don't have static wrinkles, but do have a highly expressive forehead in addition to a strong glabellular muscle. I feel I am over paying for treatment. Even my eye area has movement. Am I getting ripped off?
