Botox and Droopy Eyelid. What are some options on treatment? by Dr. Philip Young: Botox / Dysport and eyelid droopiness can be treated with drops to the eye. I typically prescribe aproclonidine or bromonidine. These drops act like epinephrine and stimulate the muscle that also elevates the eyelid called Mueller’s muscle. This muscle is deeper than the levator muscle. You will have to use this until the 3-4 months it takes your muscle to come back and act normally. I have found that the levator recovers faster than most muscles.
