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 there are. Actually there is a similar product to Botox called Dysport. Dysport helps with fine lines and wrinkles without giving the patient a frozen look. It gives the patient a more natural appearance. Dysport is also known to spread out more than botox.

Depending on the severity and the location, you can consider a combination of medical grade skin care products with some form of laser rejuvenation treatment such as Fraxel or a skin tightening device such as Aluma or Refirme.

The only Botox alternative with FDA approval is Dysport (a very similar product). If you are looking for a NON-botulinum toxin product that mimics the effects of Botox, we do not have a suggestion because we do not believe there are viable alternatives. Laser resurfacing may help with some wrinkles, but works in a very different way and with much different results than Botox.
