Hello.

I’m Kim Jin-hyeon, the chief director at YOU&I Clinic Mokdong Branch.

“ The wrinkles are gone with Botox,

but somehow it feels awkward. ”

This is something people who try forehead Botox for the first time often say after the procedure.

It is true that Botox is a treatment that helps reduce wrinkles.

But simply saying that wrinkles have “just been smoothed out” and saying they have “been naturally softened” are completely different matters.

In particular, the forehead is a relatively large exposed area of the face and is closely connected to facial expressions, so even a small change can make expressions look very different.

That is why, for forehead Botox, it is very important to design the treatment while also considering facial harmony and expression.

From here on, let’s take a step-by-step look at how Botox can smooth forehead wrinkles and what to keep in mind during the procedure.

Why reviews saying it “was smoothed out awkwardly” appear

“ After getting Botox, I feel awkward when I smile. ”

One major reason people say it feels awkward after forehead Botox is the approach of paralyzing the entire muscle in the same way.

The frontalis muscle is an important muscle involved in lifting the eyebrows, expressing emotions, and maintaining the balance of the entire face.

But if Botox is injected too broadly or excessively without considering the frontalis muscle, the expression may look blank or you may feel as if your eyes are heavy.

“ If I get Botox,

does the eyebrows sag too? ”

Yes. In particular, if too much is injected into people who have a habit of frequently raising their eyebrows, the likelihood of actual eyelid heaviness, a tight feeling in the forehead, and unnatural expressions becomes higher.

“ The wrinkles are smoother,

but I still look older. ”

Even if wrinkles are reduced by Botox, a stiff expression can actually make you look older.

In the end, what matters is how naturally the area has been smoothed.

Botox results: why do they differ from person to person?

Botox is a treatment that helps improve wrinkles by controlling muscle movement.

It is not just a simple wrinkle remover.

Because of this, the depth of the wrinkles and the movement of the muscles must be carefully considered together.

In particular, muscle movement differs depending on each person’s expression habits, skin elasticity, age, and other factors, so it needs to be checked carefully through precise diagnosis.

That is why the dose of Botox, injection depth, direction, and other details used during the procedure will differ based on those findings.

Even if, by chance, the procedure is performed in exactly the same way, the results will inevitably differ because the underlying canvas is different from the start.

This is why results differ from person to person even when the same area is treated with the same type of Botox.

And in the case of forehead wrinkles, as people age, expression lines are more likely to become fixed wrinkles, so there may be limitations to Botox treatment alone.

In such cases, combined treatments such as laser procedures and skin boosters may need to be considered along with Botox.

The results will also vary depending on whether such combination treatments are performed.

“ I’m getting forehead Botox for the first time in my life,

how much should be injected for it to look natural? ”

For first-time patients, it is preferable to start with a small dose so that the muscle response can be observed in detail and then gradually increase it.

Injecting a small amount first, observing it for a certain period, and then adding a little more where needed can help create a more natural harmony.

The decisive factors that determine treatment results

“ The most important thing for me is for it to smooth out naturally.

How should the procedure be done? ”

The answer is simple. Everything depends on the design.

For example, men generally have thicker skin and may have a relatively larger amount of muscle mass, so they may require a somewhat larger dose,

but if too much is injected, the entire forehead may feel heavily pressed down.

So rather than using the same dose for all men, a personalized design that looks at each individual’s characteristics and adjusts the dose little by little is needed.

In women, subtle facial expressions are relatively more common, and the movement of the forehead muscles also tends to be more delicate.

In such cases, what matters more than a uniformly distributed treatment is subtle control of intensity.

Even when broadly divided only by men and women, the treatment direction changes significantly; how much greater would the difference be when comparing individuals?

The key to Botox treatment lies in delicate customized design based on precise diagnosis.

“ Can the results also change depending on who performs the procedure? ”

Yes, this is one of the most important factors.

Even if the same Botox and the same dose are used, the results can differ greatly depending on how the face was analyzed and how the injection points were determined.

That is why finding medical staff who can provide customized design and have a high level of expertise is the key to natural-looking Botox treatment.

Botox is a treatment in which natural results can be expected only when several factors are considered together, including a person’s usual way of expressing emotions, facial muscles, and overall facial impression.

Simply having forehead wrinkles disappear does not automatically make it a satisfying treatment.

Only when the expression is also smooth and natural can it truly be called a “successful” Botox treatment.

So, if you are considering Botox for the first time, rather than looking only at the dose or type, we recommend consulting with a medical professional who can consider the treatment design suited to your face, muscle response, and expressiveness together.

This has been Kim Jin-hyeon, chief director at YOU&I Clinic Mokdong Branch.

Thank you.
