Fun Fact ▪️I used to require 70units of botox to tame this forehead and frown lines. It took me 2 years of injecting 70 units of botox every 4months to get it under control. Now I simply maintain with 15-20units every 4months. ▪️Can you believe I was 21 in this photo? ▪️
I often get asked, "When is a good time to start doing botox?" Most people would think 21 is way too young to start until you see this forehead... Each patient is different, but my general rule is 1) if you make the expression and then relax, can you see the lines at rest? If yes, (even faintly)... it's time. ▪️Without botox the lines will only continue to set and get deeper. Which then requires more units, and more time to correct them. 2) sooner is always better than later. ▪️even if it's once, or once a year, the smallest amount of botox prevention can make a huge difference. ▪️The GOAL 🥅: to be able to use the least amount of botox overtime. By starting early, we can stay in prevention phase longer and then maintain with less. I like to call this ▪️BABY BOTOX ▪️it optimizes movement and expression while suppressing wrinkles and lines to give the most natural results possible. ▪️▪️▪️get the magic @smithand_co
