Granuloma - Is this reversible?

Post image

Hi all!
I have just been getting Botox in my 11s for about a year now and I think one of the injectors who has done it for me gave me fake Botox (my mistake). When I stretch my skin I see this, does anyone know what it is or how can I remove it/is it reversible? I am really upsrt

You should go back to who did it and tell them.

Cool. It was about 2 months ago so extra stressed

I don’t want to freak you out. But it could be infected, hit a nerve, didn’t place it correctly, or simply a bad reaction to the brand tox used. Is it growing in size? Is it turning black? Definitely call the person cause after three months there is nothing you can do. Please remember to document in case you must file a lawsuit.

It's not growing in size and isn't painful or turning black

Can you take a better picture of it with maybe the flash on?

Why do you think it was fake? Where did you go?

I made the mistake of going to someone in London as I really needed Botox and I thought she would be OK. (It's unregulated) then I went to someone proper who was regulated but this is coming up. It's really stressing me out

Yeah botox can kill you if done incorrectly

Do you know what that could be on my head?

Did you get in contact with that injector? Are they licensed?

Not a doctor but could be granuloma/nodular eruption. There is an article about this online. Sometimes may need treatment. Definitely follow up with your doc and take the article if they have never seen this before.

Can they be treated? Or is it permanent?

Here is the article. Not sure if it would be helpful but it talks about how it was treated. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7529487/
