I developed a droopy eyelid after a BOTOX® service a few years ago. I swore off Botox® for a while but I am thinking of doing it again. What are my chances of developing another droopy eyelid?
A droopy eyelid can occur when BOTOX® drifts deep into the eyelid. This generally is only going to happen if the injector places the needle too deep or pinches up the eyebrow. By avoiding these types of maneuvers, the incidence of dropping an eyelid following a Botox® service is vanishingly small.
Choosing a skilled, properly trained surgeon like Dr. Steinsapir will effectively erase the chances of these negative side effects. Dr. Steinsapir is a pioneer cosmetic surgeon and has created exclusive, patent-pending procedures that are only available via his Los Angeles practice.
