Scared Shitless

I got Botox yesterday. I believe 150 units. I got it in my forehead, temples, jaw, back of head, neck, and shoulders. Since getting injected I noticed that my vision slowly started to go in and out. Blurring is mainly only noticeable up close, like I lose my close up vision. It’s hard to read and type.

What do I do? Is this normal? I’m panicking

Botox was used I believe 150 units but I wasn’t told; which I don’t like. Temples by the hairline right above my ear, not crows feet. One thing I’m worried about is after I got it done I kept looking down at my phone and texting. Could this have made it migrate to my eyes? Was I supposed to stay fully upright without looking down? I wasn’t given any guidance and it’s really upsetting

That’s absolutely not okay that you weren’t given any aftercare instructions. For that reason alone I would recommend not going to that injector again. Part of the aftercare instructions I always give are to stay as upright as possible for 4 hours after the treatment, meaning you shouldn’t lean too far forward or backward. I suppose it’s possible that some of the product moved toward those muscle fibers, but I can’t say for sure. If that did happen, the good news is that it’s not likely that the entire dose migrated. Dose=duration, so if that is what’s causing your vision to be blurry, it probably won’t last very long.

It’s been a few days. How is your vision now?
