Is wrinkle Botox usually quite painful because it feels like getting multiple injections?

I want to try wrinkle Botox, but just the thought of injections makes me nervous for no reason.
I tend to squeeze my eyes shut even when getting vaccinations, so when I thought about getting multiple shots in my face, I was more worried about the pain than the effectiveness, haha.
Still, lately I've been constantly bothered by the fine lines that appear when I make facial expressions, so I'm thinking of getting real wrinkle Botox this time.
How painful is wrinkle Botox usually?
If it is a method where you get small injections in several places rather than just a single sting, I think it would feel quite painful at first.
Some people say it's over faster than expected because the needles are so thin, but I'm curious if it's really bearable haha.
Do people who are sensitive to pain sometimes request things like anesthetic cream or cooling before the procedure?
Or I would like to know if it is more common to receive the wrinkle Botox quickly without anesthesia because the injection itself takes only a short time.
I think it might actually be better to just endure a few minutes and get it over with quickly rather than waiting a long time for anesthesia lol
I am also curious if it only stings when the injection goes in, or if there is a throbbing or stiff feeling after it is over.
Do you usually feel almost back to normal by the time you go home after getting wrinkle Botox?
I'm also curious if it feels more painful the first time because I'm nervous, and if it gets much better from the second time onwards as I get used to the process.
Are there any of you who have consistently received wrinkle Botox even though you are as afraid of needles as I am?
Now that you've actually tried it, I want to hear your honest impressions—whether you wondered why you were so scared, or if it still stings every time you get it.
Please share your actual experiences if you've been putting it off due to the pain but eventually got it done.

    바늘이 워낙 얇아서 따끔하기만 하고 생각보다 금방 끝나니까 너무 겁먹지 마세요.
    통증이 걱정되면 병원에 미리 말씀드려서 마취크림을 바르고 진행하시면 훨씬 편해요
