Botox in my forehead and around my crows lines is lasting 4-5 weeks but my frown line is lasting 3 months and the nurse said it was just due to strong muscles. Is this correct?

Botox Not Lasting the Same in Different Areas

  Hi and thank you for your question! Yes, this is totally normal and might flag the need of additional units for the crows feet. Not only the response to Botox may vary from patient to patient, it might vary within the same patient from time to time, or even at the same time from area to area. I hope it helps and good luck!
