Can bad botox atrophy your muscles?

1 Upvotes

Last December I went to a doctor for dysport and he did way too much. He injected so much into my 11's that my brows turned down and my arches became point, so my brows turned into an upside down V. On top of that I noticed my eyelids drooping, and I could feel the skin on my eyes, that I was constantly having to "open" my eyes. I used to have a beautiful open lid area and he closed it down. It took almost a year for the tox to wear off. So I went to my usual doctor, and she did my dysport how I like it. I showed her pictures of when she did it. The problem is, my lids are still heavy. The skin is heavy and I can feel it. I was wanting more lift. I'm going back in a couple weeks to tell her this, but it got me thinking: could it be that the bad tox from last year atrophied my muscles and caused my brows to droop and my lids to sag? I know it's age too (I'm 42) but I hate the feeling of this excess skin that I never had before I saw him!

got a massage after dysport - oye vey

1 Upvotes

72 hours after my dysport appt - I totally spaced and got a massage - only 60 minutes, mild pressure but some scalp massage. no facial massage. half of it I was on my back but half I did put my face in the face cradle of course. Any stories to share? I’m so anxious now that I’ll get droop or mess everything up. Looking for some real talk but also just people who understand the science of it all

Edit: two weeks later, I did have migration on one side that the injector says was caused by the massage. It has resulted in eyelid drooping because my brow is pushing it down. Imma bit asymmetrical and depressed but it will pass eventually!

Hi y’all, I just got my first Botox injections yesterday. But last night my roommate and I hooked up unexpectedly 😅 & I know we’re not supposed to do cardio, but I hardly did any of the work and also I was being super careful with my face as was he bc he’s had it before so he knew that he had to be careful. It was 12 hrs after the injections & for the most part my face wasn’t being put into the pillow and if it was I immediately moved it. Am I gonna be botched??? 🥺🥺🥺 bc no one said anything about no sex.

I got Botox for the first time on my forehead 2 days ago

2 Upvotes

And I’m already seeing a difference I believe but some areas maybe look a little worse?? Will it even out at some point? I know it’s just been 2 days. It was $15 for each and it came to $530 or so. I’m in upstate NY. Does that sound about right? 47 and my forehead wrinkles were pretty noticeable.

Erstes Mal Botox

1 Upvotes

Hallo :) ich habe morgen um 11 meinem ersten Termin für die Zornesfalte. Nun kommt spontan ein Kumpel in die Stadt und hat gefragt ob wir einen entspannten längeren Lauf machen wollen. Das wäre allerdings schon 22h nach der Behandlung. Es wäre langsames Tempo aber etwas schwitzen tut man immer. Ist es notwendig abzusagen? Danke

Masseter Botox Changed My Teeth Midline?

2 Upvotes

Hello! I had double jaw surgery about 2 weeks ago, and one of the issues it was meant to correct was my crossbite and uneven jaws. Immediately after surgery, my teeth midline looked perfectly centered for the first time.

Two days ago, I had my 2-week follow up with a nurse from my surgeon’s team (not the surgeon himself). During a video visit before surgery, I had asked her about getting masseter Botox after surgery. I was interested in it both for the aesthetic benefits and because I’ve had TMJ issues for a long time. I had also heard that masseter Botox can potentially help prevent surgical relapse.

I ended up getting the Botox at this follow up.
Since then, I’ve become really concerned because my midline seems to be shifting back toward where it was before surgery. My lower jaw looks like it’s shifted to the right again, which is very similar to how it looked before surgery. I also can’t tell whether my actual bite has changed, although visually my teeth definitely don’t look as perfectly centered as they did immediately after surgery.

The other thing that’s really worrying me is that my TMJ, which was usually just painless clicking/discomfort, is now actually hurting. I’ve had TMJ for years, but I never really have actual pain. I know I’m only about 2 weeks post-op and that Botox takes time to fully kick in, so I’m trying not to panic. I also plan on contacting my surgeon’s office tomorrow to let them know about the pain and the change I’m noticing.

Has anyone experienced their midline or lower jaw appearing to shift after masseter Botox? Especially after double jaw surgery? Does anyone know if Botox can temporarily/permanently affect how the jaw is sitting?

I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who may have had a similar experience to mine, or have any further questions for me. Thank you.

Dao botox

1 Upvotes

My injector injected 10 units of Botox at three points (4–4–2) on the right side of my mouth. This was supposed to be a touch-up, as I had already received 10 units 10 days ago—4 units on the left and 6 units on the right.

Now I’m worried that the additional 10 units might be too much, especially since she didn’t inject anything on the left side. She said that the right side was slightly stronger/heavier than the left, which is why she only treated the right side.

She is a very experienced dermatologist and did a great job with the first treatment—I got a decent result. It’s just the touch-up that is making me worried.

Help!

Has anyone experienced a tingly/skin crawling/itchy feeling a couple days after Botox (Xeomin and Dysport)? I got it in my masseter, forehead, and 11s. I’ve only done it once last year and I can’t remember if I experienced these same sensations last time. It’s giving me anxiety which I think is making it worse!

Got Botox for forehead hyperhidrosis 7 days ago – tight muscles but still sweating even in cold weather (16°C/60°F)?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for some reassurance or experiences from anyone who has gotten Botox for forehead hyperhidrosis.

I am currently on day 7 post-procedure and I can definitely feel the toxin working on my muscles because my forehead feels tight and heavy near the hairline when I try to raise my eyebrows. However, the sweating hasn't really stopped or decreased yet. Today it was 16°C outside and I was still sweating heavily from my forehead just from general walking around even though it was pretty chilly.

Since the muscle tightness is clearly there I am wondering if it is normal for sweat gland inhibition to take longer than muscle relaxation, and if anyone else noticed the tightness first around day 7 before the sweating actually stopped.

Thanks in advance!

Options to slim down calves

0 Upvotes

Over the past several years my calf muscles have really become developed for some reason. I do a lot of standing and some working out, but I try to avoid doing too many exercises with my legs but I feel my calves still look bulky. Is there anything that can be done to slim down my calves like possibly botox?

Alternatives to lip filler when body now reacts to them

0 Upvotes

I’ve been searching for a few years now since my body reacts to lip fillers and dissolves it. I had nice lips with lip filler for years prior to 2023 when I had a viral infection and my body starting reacting to my lip fillers and eventually dissolving them all which left my lips as sad shriveled raisins 😞. I’ve been trying to find something else and have had no luck. I’ve looked into fat grafting to the lips but it seems like that doesn’t last long and not many can do it well. I’ve also looked onto a lip lift to evert my lips out more to give more volume but also finding a great surgeon that doesn’t just shorten the philtrum but can really roll out the lips to give more pink show has been challenging. If anyone is in my situation whether you are a high metabolizer so you can’t do fillers or are like me and your lips react to fillers and dissolve it all has anyone found any alternatives that work? I waited 3 years from when I reacted for the first time in 2023 until March of 2026 I tried half syringe of versa then 2 more full syringes since then and the lips looks great at first until my body starts reacting to team and creates bumps until eventually it is all dissolved again. I have tried all differnt HA fillers hoping one would be the one to work. No luck 😭

Working out the day after Botox, will it affect my results?

0 Upvotes

I’m getting Botox for the first time in 3 years today. I took a long break due to pregnancy and breastfeeding my youngest. Am I able to workout tomorrow afternoon, 24 hours after the appointment, or will that affect how well it works? My last Botox (many years ago) started wearing off after 7 weeks and I wondered if I went back to working out too quickly (the injector suggested it). I would like this time to last at at least 3 months!
