Can Botox cause eye bags?
One of the most common concerns regarding Botox and Dysport injections is complications or side effects. It is true that Botox and Dysport can contribute to the development of eye bags. Certain patients who are more susceptible to fluid accumulation may experience these issues. This includes individuals with sinusitis, allergies, or oculi muscle disorder. These can all contribute to the bloating of the skin underneath the eyelids, which can create bags. In addition, certain factors such as sleep deprivation, fatigue, and sleeplessness can also significantly draw more attention to excess fat and fluid underneath the eyes. Knowing the risks and complications of Botox and Dysport injections can help patients be more prepared for these concerns.
What other side effects may occur?
Botox and Dysport can cause patients to experience itching, redness, and bruising at the injection sites, but these often resolve on their own. Patients must talk to Dr. Bertha Baum about what they can expect from treatment–both the good and the bad–to determine if they are proper candidates. Botox has many benefits, including improved appearance, smoother wrinkles and folds, and affordability.
