How are facial expression habits and dosage determined before a consultation for forehead and glabella Botox?
The attached photo shows the skin on my forehead and between my eyebrows. When I make facial expressions, the area between my eyebrows looks pressed down, and my forehead becomes shiny due to oil buildup. I am writing to inquire because I am considering whether I should get a Botox consultation.
I am curious whether it is common to consult for forehead and glabella wrinkle Botox together on the same day, or if the consultation is conducted separately for each area. I would also like to know how facial expression habits and skin condition are assessed during the consultation, and what criteria are used to determine the dosage if it is a first-time treatment.
Also, could you please let me know when I can wash my face, exercise, or use a sauna after the procedure, and if my forehead will feel heavy? Since I have to go to work, I would also like to confirm if this will interfere with my schedule on the day of the procedure.
Finally, I would like to inquire about when the effects appear, the duration of the results, and the interval for follow-up treatments. I would also appreciate it if you could let me know if I can make a decision after receiving only a consultation first.

- 02CommentsI also got a consultation because I was told I looked tired due to defined lines under my cheekbones when I was expressionless. They told me that nasolabial folds need to be considered in conjunction with cheek hollowing or sagging. Since Botox alone might not solve the problem, make sure to ask about concerns regarding facial movements during your consultation. As someone who had a reality check to see if massages could smooth them out, I think it's faster to just see a professional.460026.11.04

- 03CommentsSince wrinkles around the mouth are in an area that moves a lot when speaking or smiling, I imagine you are most concerned about whether your facial expressions will look natural after the procedure.
