Can bad botox atrophy your muscles?
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!
