My eye shape changed after I had Botox. They are now smaller and hold a very different shape. Are the changes permanent?

BOTOX -4 answers

My eye shape has change for the worse. They look smaller with saggy lids after 12 units Botox in my forehead and temples. I've totally changed the shape of my eye shape and size. My eyes had an exotic look and now that's lost. I saw the change happen in my left eye first and now my right eye has caught up. my left eye also has extra sagging in the lid giving them a lopsided appearance.Will my cat eye like shape and size return? If so how long? Is there any chance of permanent change?

Yes, it does work and it works well. Botox is FDA approved for this purpose. All of the patients who I have done love it. The only question is how long does it last? It varies from patient to patient but on average 3-9 months.

Yes, Botox works beautifully to stop excessive sweating in the armpits. Other options are to use topicals such as Drysol or Certain Dri. If these treatments do not work you can be treated by a Neurosurgeon with a surgical procedure to cut the nerve that causes sweating.

Yes, Botox is very effective for the treatment of Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating produced by the sweat glands of the axillae, palms and soles). Injection in the area will not interfere with the body's ability to cool itself by sweating. The dosage is typically 100U, split between both axillae.
