47 yr old and Wrinkles EVERYWHERE !!! - Marmora, NJ

I think pretty significant reduction. Each photo is me with a BIG smile. One taken before and the other 3 days post injection.

Relaxed face--neither smiling nor frowning.

The photos I've included are of me smiling as deeply/hard as possible to show all wrinkling. The first photos were taken yesterday prior to injection, and the second ones taken just now approximately 28 hours post injection. My understanding is that within the next day or so most of the egfrct will kick in. Anyway, I look way older than everyone else my age and have FAR more wrinkles. And this literally all took place over the past two years, dramatically drooping and wrinkling. There's lots I want to do but funds are limited and I wanted the cash I had on hand to be best spent and address my major concerns being the crows feet, forehead, eyes, vertical lip lines and smile line wrinkling. Not being able to afford it all at once I decided to go with the Botox in the forehead, Glabella and crows feet because it is less expensive than fillers and thought I would get the most bang for my buck while still addressing at least three of the areas of concern. This was my first time ever having anything injected and of course I did literally months worth of daily research looking at before and after's, reading reviews on physicians, treatment options etc. . The doctor was wonderful, she spent a great deal of time with me during our consultation, patiently re-re-answering questions that I repeatedly asked lol. What I liked most about her was her candidness and honesty, truthfully stating her strong points as well as her weaknesses in her profession. So happy to hear that rather than someone that claims they're awesome at every aspect even though they may not be. Unlike the majority of offices that I've researched, this office charges by the area for Botox rather than the unit. Botox on the forehead and glabella costs $300 and crows feet cost $150. If done at the same time the cost is $350 for all three areas. Not sure how many units she used but I think I got about four injections in the forehead, four in the glabella and four in each eye area, but don't quote me on that because I wasn't counting. So far no bruising, and immediately afterwards you could not even see where the needles went in and zero bleeding. On a scale of 1 to 10 with regards to pain level of the injection, I would say 1. It felt like little more than a tiny prick. I have a major fear of the dreaded eye droop, and had settled prior to getting the injections done. I feel a slight happiness in the corner of my left eye.but I'm trying to remain optimistic, hoping that's not going to be a droopy eye, I'll be devastated :-(
I will add more photos as things progress. Ive never posted photos of ANYTHING or even written A review for that matter, but I wanted to do so because others who have graciously done so have been extremely instrumental in my research process. If there's anything I failed to address please ask I will do my best to answer. I hope this is a helpful review, but I do understand it needs additional follow-ups as it progresses. I will try to document the various stages for you.. Thank you to everyone on the many YouTube videos I've watched, Internet searches and here on realself.com.
