Botox injections work by weakening or paralyzing certain
muscles or by blocking certain nerves. The effects last about
three to four months. Side effects can include pain at the
injection site, flu-like symptoms, headache and upset stomach.

eyelids. You should not use Botox if you are pregnant or breast
feeding.
