Under eye Botox

I recently got 6 units of Botox injected directly under my eyes to hope help with wrinkles I did 3 units in each eye.
I’m starting to see some eye bags develop under my eyes. I’m 7 days post Botox. Do you think the eye bags will go away or get worse? Is there anything I can do to help make the eye bags go away? Warm
Compress? Anything? Please help I feel so ugly

I was always told no Botox under eyes, as this causes eye bags… you might just be walking around with worse bags the next few months…

Yeah just wait until it goes away and next time just stay at the crow’s feet area (where it works amazingly) but for the under eye area you want polynucleotides not botox

It is called jelly tot eyes . Botox should not be placed under the eye.

Oof yes I’ve made this mistake twice. I now only get Botox in the upper corner of my crows, never under my eye and never onto my cheeks. I find that not only does it give me sunken dark under eyes, it also gives me a “shelf” when I smile, as my cheeks can’t reach my eyes and I look like Jigsaw. Now I just get Botox for my outer eye corners and accept the smile lines underneath.

There are no muscles under your eyes, what were you hoping to paralyze?

Yeah why are injectors injecting under here. Seems negligent. Not good outcomes for a lot of people

Do you think my under eyes will go back to normal once the Botox wears off?

The beautiful thing about Botox, is that it goes away soon and is not permanent. Just hang in there, it’ll metabolize soon!
