I had it done between my eyes, and had no problems. I didn't even feel the needle much at all.

The most common side effect is that the botox isn't applied correctly -- often due to unique facial features or other issues.

If this happens, an unitended portion of the face will be numb for 3-6 months, so its not permanent.

How did your Botox injections turn out? My dermatologist talked me into it last week. What a surprise! I thought it only made you not show lines when you smiled - I didn't know it actually relaxed the wrinkles. When I got up to look in the mirror, my forehead lines were gone! He put about 8-10 injections in my forehead only and told me you are not supposed to get too close to the eyebrows or they will droop. I am amazed at the results. My forehead has always bothered me a lot and I wear bangs because of it. I have no loose skin - it's just where I show wrinkles. Well they are gone and I couldn't be happier. I will definitely be going back in 3 months to get it done again.
