First up today, we\u2019re looking a relatively common complaint of patients who have come in for glabellar Botox injections. Roughly 1 in 20 patients who\u2019ve been treated in this specific area to reduce lines on the forehead can come back in to your office complaining about a \u201cdeer in the headlights\u201d look.<\/p>\n
One\u2019s eyes looking excessively wide open after treatment is essentially the result of an injection administered too low on the forehead. An injection which affects mostly the frontalis muscle leads to a mismatch in the push \/ pull relationship of the frontalis and corrugator muscles. Without a counterbalance, the eyebrow is pulled upwards to give the patient that telltale surprised look.<\/p>\n
Give the \u201cdon\u2019t look surprised\u201d video a watch to learn as Dr. Katz explains an elegant and simple strategy for ameliorating this problem.<\/p>\n
