My Worst Botox Experience

My Worst Botox Experience

$700
This is was the worst Botox experience I’ve ever had. I’ve been getting Botox injections for years with satisfying results, and never such a situation. I do understand the anatomy and limits of Botox, but if you cannot simply smooth wrinkles on the forehead, what’s the purpose of getting Botox then!
I asked to treat my forehead lines, crow’s feet, frown lines, and lips corners and to especially lift my eyebrows because I have low eyebrows. He said that can be done with 50 units, and I got my injections on July 19th. I went back for a follow-up expecting him to admit that my forehead lines were there and my eyebrows were not lifted which was something I made clear that I wanted. He said the Botox was working fine and the forehead lines cannot be smoothed any further and eyebrows cannot be lifted because I already had low eyebrows ( duh!! That’s why I came to you!) He finally agreed to give me 10 additional units on the corner of my eyes. By the time I signed the cost consent, I changed my mind and left without getting the injection because I couldn’t trust him anymore. His work never showed any results other than giving me a horrible scary unbalanced look when I squint as shown in the pictures. I don’t recommend this place. The quality of the product and the level of service is a joke.

Any experienced injector should be able to give you an eyebrow lift. And he definitely didn't give you enough Botox in your forehead. My guess is maybe it was watered down. How much did you pay for 50 units?

Oh forget it, I see you paid $700. That's unacceptable

I paid $700. And yes, it’s practice to dilute Botox but I believe it was overly diluted to the point that it lost its effectiveness
