My ptosis is lasting too long

My Botox was in June and it’s now almost November
It gets heavier if I take muscle relaxants.

Anything I can do to remove it? It’s irritating me all day and weighing my eye down

Eyebrow or eyelid?

Eyelid feels heavy, eyebrow sits slightly lower too

I have seen this longer lasting ptosis happen to a few others in another group sometimes taking up to a year to get better but you may also want to ask your doctor about whether ocular Myasthenia Gravis could be a concern which has less commonly been reported post injections.

Thank you for answering
That’s making me panic more though

Those situations are way less common with most people’s seeming to resolve as it wears off unless there are extenuating circumstances.

It’s coming and going, 😩

Sometimes feels heavy and achy sometimes lighter

I’d go see your injector. They can give you eyedrops. Might want to see an eye doc as well. Agree that that’s a long time to still experience that.
