I had Botox injected into my forehead and brow area 9 weeks ago. When I was rubbing off my makeup yesterday I felt a spasm in between my brows. Could I have done something wrong by possibly using too much pressure?
Answer:
I doubt it. Your may need more Botox to relax a partially relaxed muscle but muscle spasms on the face can occur normally and Botox is a treatment for them. Pressure and massage should be avoided for a few hours after injections but over 2 months later, some of the muscle contractions may be reforming and the pressure may have stimulated it. Its likely time for more Botox although Botox typically should last 3-4 months between the brows and 2-3 months around the eyes.
