Is Benadryl Advisable For Puffiness Under The Eye Caused After A Botox Treatment?
I got Botox on Wednesday for my crows feet so around the edge of my eye. I drove to Tahoe today (Friday) 2 days later. I went from sea level to about 7000 ft in elevation. This evening my skin on the side of my eye is puffy. It s not hard like a hive but more like there is fluid under the skin. Any recommendations? Should I take a Benadryl? I feel fine otherwise. No pain or tenderness around it.
