Unhappy with Forehead Botox...droopy Brows and Hooded Lids!

Alright, it's only day 4 after my very first Botox treatment and I HATE this! I started seeing the results yesterday, on day 3. I went in to see a specialist about some lines I've noticed on my forehead, particularly the right half, that have started to bother me. My foundation has started to collect in them, making them very noticeable and I was unhappy. I had a pretty thorough consultation. The nurse listened to me and asked me tons of questions for about 20 minutes. I felt comfortable enough to go through with the procedure, and now I regret it! I received 24 units total. 18 of them were in the glabella, and the remaining 6 were in my forehead. My brows, which are normally very arched, are now so flat they're almost completely straight. I have a slightly heavier brow than average, with semi-hooded lids. Now, they are completely droopy and I've lost what little eyelid space I had to begin with. I absolutely hate this! I read through a review from 2 years ago written by a user named Tesssa and it proved to be very comforting for me. She had a similar outcome from her Botox treatment, and she started to see noticeable improvement in her eyes by the end of month 1. I am hoping that I follow a similar timeline. I've already calculated the days, and I should start to see things look a little better by Cinco de Mayo. Let's hope!!! My eyes feel so heavy. I guess I subconsciously raised used my forehead muscles to elevate my eyebrows almost 100% of the time, and not being able to do so now is killing me. I feel like I look sleepy and sort of sad. I've only been experiencing the results for 2 days and my anxiety level is already through the roof. I've had a nervous stomach the entire damn time. I really hope that settles down soon. I'm especially anxious to see how this develops. My nurse told me full results won't be visible until day 10 or 14. AGH!! How much worse can this get??? Reading Tesssa's full review with daily updates was very helpful for me yesterday. I think I am going to continue to do the same thing with this review. I don't really blame my practitioner. She cautioned me that only treating the forehead could result in a heavier brow, which is why she treated it so lightly and put so much more in the glabella. I can still squish my brows together and make the 11 lines, so maybe that area will start to show some improvement in the next few days which will help to lift the brows. I really, really hope so. I don't think they can get any lower! I really, really, really hate this. I'm mad at myself for being so vain. I can't believe I voluntarily did this, and with so much excitement!

Day 5 and things are pretty much the same. I've had a ton of abdominal cramping and diarrhea the past 2 days. Initially, I assumed I caught a stomach flu as lots of folks at my work have had it recently. Then, the paranoia set in and I read far too many negative stories on this site and I'm worried that the stomach cramping is due to the Botox.

I'm relieved that my face looks the same as yesterday. I'm hopeful that this is basically all it's going to look like. It's bad and I don't like it, but nobody else has noticed it. I haven't told anybody that I work with, and nobody has mentioned anything to me.

I am going to continue to update this review every day. I really, really hope that this will be a long-forgotten nightmare soon enough. Month #1 is my first big milestone. I really hope I can see some visual improvement by then. How could I possibly have been so stupid? Ugh.

...is that I look kind of annoyed or angry all the time now. My right eye is particularly bad. The eyebrow is very low and the eye is nearly totally hooded. Botox really took all of the emotion out of my eyes. My neutral expression now looks sort of annoyed. It looks about the same as yesterday. It's sort of relieving that I think this is as bad as it's going to get. I'm going to try not to obsess, but that's difficult to do when I can't escape this weird heavy/leaden feeling. I really hope that I see some improvement by 4 weeks. From reading other reviews, that's when others in this predicament started to notice some positive changes. My stomach feels alright today. I've been taking some kaopectate, which has calmed the cramping and constant running to the bathroom.

I hope that I can start to report good news soon.
