I went to another derm and she did my bunny lines differently. Both used 10 units of botox. But whereas my previous derm did 3 shots on each side of the nose and one in the horizontal fine lines between eyebrows, the new derm only did one shot on each side of the nose (also one between eyebrows). I have to say: the first treatment (3 shots) worked better, I could hardly move my nose anymore. Whereas now I can still move it, and I see lines there when I laugh. Isn't this weird?
