Britney Spears is warning fans to think twice before their next cosmetic procedure after revealing a Botox treatment left her left eye drooping for nearly a month.
The pop icon shared an Instagram video on Friday, August 7, showing the lingering effects of the injection. "He put so much Botox in this left eye that it drooped down like that," Spears said in the clip, pressing on her eyelid to demonstrate. "It's just now starting to raise up and be normal again."
Spears, 44, said the drooping lasted about four weeks and called the experience "so embarrassing." She captioned the post, "You can't trust anyone!!!" and urged her followers, particularly women considering similar treatments, to be cautious. "Girls, you have to be careful if you do Botox," she said, adding that not every doctor has a patient's best interests in mind. "Be careful with your bodies, because it's yours and you own it."
This isn't the first time Spears has spoken candidly about cosmetic work. In 2023, she wrote on Instagram that she'd had Botox "done right" only rarely over a 10-to-15-year span, and that some procedures had left her unable to be seen publicly for weeks at a time.
The Botox post came just days after Spears shared a separate, deeply personal message reflecting on faith and motherhood, telling followers she believes in "a Holy Spirit that sits high in the kingdom of heaven."
Since regaining control of her personal affairs in 2021, Spears has continued to use social media as an unfiltered window into both her struggles and her convictions - Friday's post adding one more chapter to that ongoing, very public journey.
