The very minimum amount of Botox for forehead wrinkles?

jryan91
Hello, 38-year-old female here. I've been getting botox on my 11 (frown marks) for nearly 10 years, and on my crows feet more recently. Now I'm starting to get horizontal lines on my forehead that could be improved. I do, however, want to avoid looking like a windshield. My great fear: the big, shiny, immobile forehead. I want just the teensy tiniest amount of Botox on these horizontal lines, especially if it would be combined with the 16 units for the 11s. What's the least amount to request?
