Britney Spears is rethinking Botox after a recent treatment left her left eye drooping for nearly a month.
The “Gimme More” singer opened up about the cosmetic mishap in an Instagram video, saying she was “so embarrassed” by the result and only recently began seeing her eye return to normal.
“It’s really bad, because [the doctor] put so much Botox in this left eye that it drooped down like that,” Spears said. “And it’s just now starting to raise up and be normal again.”
According to Spears, the side effect did not disappear quickly.
“My eye was down like this for four weeks,” she said. “It’s just now starting to rise again.”
The 44-year-old then turned the experience into a warning for fans considering similar treatments.

“Girls, you have to be careful,” she said. “If you do Botox with these people and these doctors, they can really f–k your eyes up.”
Spears also urged people to protect their sense of ownership over their appearance.
“Be careful with your bodies because it’s yours and you own it,” she said. “You can’t trust anyone !!!”
Spears has spoken before about feeling disconnected from her appearance during her conservatorship, which ended in 2021 after 13 years.
In a 2022 Instagram post, she recalled feeling “uneasy, unattractive, not in my skin” during that period.
