A few weeks after receiving Botox injections in my forehead, I noticed an indentation starting from my left eyebrow and extending towards the hairline. My doctor claims that the Botox did not cause it. I'm a bit worried. Has anyone else experienced this? Will the indentation go away when the effects of the Botox wear off? Thank you.
The dent in your forehead is not likely caused by the Botox itself but rather the effect of Botox on the underlying muscles. Botox paralyzes the muscle, resulting in a smoother appearance that may reveal underlying irregularities in the forehead bone. The dent should lessen as the effects of Botox wear off.
It is possible that an indentation or contour that was previously unnoticed has become more apparent after BOTOX treatment. The relaxation of surrounding muscles due to BOTOX may reveal underlying irregularities. Once the effects of BOTOX wear off, the indentation should return to normal. If you have any further concerns, I suggest consulting with your injector for a more accurate assessment.
Botox injections typically do not create indentations in the forehead. It is possible that changes in muscle contraction may be causing irregularities. A photo would be helpful for further assessment.
Without photos, it is challenging to discuss the potential causes of your condition. It is recommended to post photos from different angles to facilitate a more informed discussion.
