It's the last thing you want to see: eyelid ptosis from Botox injections. It’s one of those complications that can really catch you off guard if you’re not careful. Eyelid ptosis occurs when the Botox affects the levator muscle, causing your eyelid to droop unexpectedly, and trust me, it’s more common than you might think. The real kicker? I’ve seen heaps of misguided advice floating around, especially on online forums, where the blind lead the blind suggesting more Botox as the fix—absolutely not the solution.
In this episode, we’ll clear up the myths and dive into why proper needle placement is crucial and what you can actually do if you find yourself facing this issue. I’ll walk you through the temporary relief that apraclonidine eye drops can offer by stimulating the Muller’s muscle and why your best bet is always to wait it out or get correct advice directly from your injector. Tune in to get the facts straight and learn how to handle one of the most dreaded Botox complications like a pro.
