37 Years Old, First Botox Experience, Disappointed

ORIGINAL POST

I was starting to get concerned about crows feet...

I was starting to get concerned about crows feet around my eyes. I received 20 units, 3 injection sites on each side. The procedure was not painful. I was able to notice results within a few days. The lines up high are definitely smoothed but I have more sag, dark bags, and creasing/wrinkles under my eyes than before. I believe I actually look much older now. The crows feet were only visible when smiling as the new wrinkles are visible all the time.

Hello, has it improved at all as the Botox wears off? I have exact same issue! I’m only a week post injections but I’m worried about how long it will remain. Thanks and good luck

At this point I’ve invested hundreds of dollars in creams to try to lessen the saggy/crepey effect, but so far no improvement. Unfortunately I also haven’t noticed the Botox to be wearing off enough to pull any of the skin tighter as it was previously. I hope you better luck than I’ve had and I appreciate the comment.

I’m so sorry to hear that. I really appreciate you replying. I’m hoping that that it might be still early-ish days for you. Some Botox can take longer to dissipate? They say 4-6months so hopefully there is still hope for you! Good luck and please update!

Increase pull of the orbicularis muscle over the nasal side pulled the skin towards the nose allowing the elevator muscle of the lips to in turn pull the extra skin downwards . Hence you have horizontal lines nearer the nose now.

Remedy: 1 unit dysport at the medial orbicularis muscle and filler into your Superficial orbicular oculi fat layer. You will look great thereafter.

That is REALLY interesting...and I would have to agree your under-eye looks worse than before. Sorry, that sounds mean...its not meant to be. But it's like the injections moved stuff to new place. Thank you so much for sharing this review :) [RS bleep]
