On Friday night, the 41-year-old pop star discussed her experience with Botox with her Instagram followers while plugging SiO beauty patches, although the post does not appear to be sponsored by the beauty brand. "I did Botox and I wasn't really happy with it because it swole up my forehead and therefore made the heaviness of my eyelids droop over and it literally looked like someone beat me up and to pay that much money to look like someone beat you up for the first two weeks... what's the point?" she asked.

"So I found this SiO thing and honestly it's really nice because it's like putty and it sticks," she explained, going on to say it "brightens my eyes" after she leaves the patch on for an hour or so. "It just lifts my forehead without all those needles and the cost. Perhaps, by chance, them doing too much Botox and making your eyes droop over and literally look like someone beat the sh*t out of you. To pay four thousand dollars? It makes no sense at all," Britney added. She then pointed to her forehead and said "SiO my friends. SiO."

In the caption of her Instagram post, the pop star first began by talking about how she wears her bangs to hide her forehead. "OK … I have a big forehead and I seriously need bangs but I feel like I can’t see sometimes with bangs !!! I’m sharing this because it actually really does work."

Britney then went on to explain that the doctors in New York City are very different from the doctors in Los Angeles, and she has had very different experiences with Botox on the East Coast and the West Coast. "Too many times, these so-called 'best doctors' do amazing Botox. Never again in Los Angeles," she explained. "My first time, I just did lips ? in New York City. WAY different than LA … so subtle, it was an adorable pout !!!! The place had all hardwood floors and was raw."

It sounds like the "Toxic" singer has had many different treatments done over the years, as she went on to say, "For probably 10 to 15 years, I haven’t had mine done right, and what’s with the times when one eyebrow is up and one is down ?? I can’t even be seen for 2 weeks. My friend’s sisters think it’s funny and laugh but I’d like to see what they would do if someone did that to their face."

"OK … so maybe in a movie like 'Just Go with It' where that girl’s eyebrows are messed up, that’s funny," Britney admitted. "But not in real life when one eye is black and blue and way higher than the other ?. I cried and then I’m like, when is this gonna go away? 'Oh, just give it a week or two.' Sometimes the nerves act that way and have a reverse effect, and I’m like, 'I look like somebody beat the sh*t out of me' !!!"
