This is the 2nd time I have had horrible results with this Doctor. The 1st time she was amazing! I had a bad result and went back again thinking it was possibly bad communication....she did the same thing! I had a big interview scheduled and needed to look refreshed, now I look like a freak! I wish I could say she was concerned or offered to fix it........but based on last time I know better than to go back and risk it. She blew off my concerns and made me feel humiliated I even brought it up.

Thank you all for your suggestions and support. I've since determined that it was most likely injecting the Botox into my crows feet that cause the odd cheek shape and increased under eye wrinkles and bunching. Ironically, on my 1st consult she advised against treating that area since I am an "eye smiler". She's not been able to get it right since that 1st time and gave me no reason why my results were different. As for the droopy eyelids and one higher than the other, I have no answer still. I did contact the doctor and sent these pictures to give her the opportunity to fix it. The office manager left a VM saying that I was obviously "crinkling my nose" to cause the look- ummmm really?? And that it is standard that most of their patients require a touch up two weeks post and that I just need to schedule an appointment and come PAY for a 'touch up'! I was a little shocked, and very sad, that this is the 2nd time I've paid to get horrible results and this was how Dr Jarmuz chose to handle it. I will have to pay to have it fixed by someone, but I've lost all trust in her.

Stop the madness. TIME will fix this. No need to pay another nickel. If the picture on the left is post - it's not as "hideous" as you may think; if the picture on the right is "before" - I can't see why you needed any Botox at all. Unless you're saying the picture on the right was after the 1st injections. Have you gone back too soon? Everybody's body metabolizes differently. I'd advise 6 months of doing nothing whatsoever! Leave well (or worse) enough alone.

I agree
Time will fix it
You do not look terrible
Be patient and let's see pictures in a month or six weeks

I'm surprised she would charge you for a touch up! I think your Botox will wear off gradually and you will be happier with how it looks. I think she gave you too much this time. If one side is not even your doctor should touch it up to even it off for FREE! That's how my nurse handles it.

First time I had Botox I had little to lift my brows and treat crows feet. 25 units total. My brows were uneven but straighten out after day or two but I had the same issue as u with increased wrinkles under eyes and cheeks pushing out.

Oops, hit submit too soon. Second time I decided to skip the crows feet and just do a little to lift eyebrows and treat forehead. 20 units total. this time my cheeks don't seem to be pushing up on my eyes as much but my under eye area def looks more hollow/sunken in and wrinkles a lot when I smile. At this point, I don't know what fix us. Maybe it's just not a good product for us eye smilers
