Lately, I'm so self-conscious about my calf muscles that I hesitate to wear skirts whenever I go out to social gatherings. Can Botox make them smooth?
I have an alumni gathering and a company anniversary event back-to-back next week, so I’ve been organizing my closet lately and pulled out my skirts again, but... I’m losing my confidence because of my calf muscles!!
I've always had a tendency for my calves to bulge out whenever I walk, but it feels like it's gotten worse lately, perhaps because of working overtime. Whenever I wear stockings and get photographed, my calf lines look particularly bumpy, so I find myself self-conscious about every event photo.
A friend told me that calf Botox can reduce the size of the calves. Is it really effective? I heard that it works by relaxing the muscles, just like jawline Botox, so I'm curious if it works in a similar way for the calves.
I also want to know if there will be any issues with daily activities (walking, going up and down stairs) immediately after the procedure! I would like to get it done in advance before an event, so how long does it usually take for the effects to show? One calf seems to be particularly larger than the other, so I am wondering if it is possible to adjust the dosage differently for each side.

- 01CommentsI also have an unconscious habit of frowning, so I can relate to your concerns about frown lines haha. If you are worried about your expression looking awkward, I recommend mentioning that during the consultation first and discussing the dosage and your next visit date together!290026.10.22
- 02CommentsIt bothers you when wrinkles catch your eye on the meeting screen, doesn't it? Haha. Try showing them your habit of raising your eyebrows during the consultation as well. If you mention upfront that you want your facial expressions to look natural, it will help you convey your concerns more effectively.170026.10.22
- 03CommentsSkin Botox differs from regular Botox in terms of injection depth and purpose, so it seems many people consult about it due to concerns regarding pores or skin texture. If you are worried about your facial expressions looking unnatural, please mention that beforehand. Also, check when the bumps typically subside and whether it is safe to receive this treatment concurrently with other procedures.230026.10.22
- 01CommentsYour question about wanting to verify actual movement rather than repeating it every month is very specific. During the consultation, it would be helpful to first confirm whether the same approach is appropriate for the eye and nasolabial fold areas, and to receive guidance on recording methods for comparison under the same lighting and facial expressions. It would also make planning easier if you asked if you can receive a follow-up consultation without booking a next procedure, and inquired about the cost for that as well.670026.10.21
