Day 10 and I'm very satisfied

WORTH IT$420
I don't know what happened between days 6-7, but here I am at day 10 and very pleased with my results, I will definitely do it again, but will probably let her do the 30 units between the eyes that she wanted to do in the first place.

Day 7 and something strange
BGinVAJuly 24, 2013
Well today is day 7 and I've had a little strange experience in the last 24 hours. Things were coming along nicely on days 5 & 6, yesterday afternoon I started feeling a little unwell, a little feverish and just off. I can by no means blame this on the Botox, as I have chronic sinus trouble that comes and goes, and it was nothing so severe that would prevent me from trying Botox again even if it was, BUT the strange thing is after that I woke up this morning and have regained about 60-70% of the movement between my eyebrows. It leaves me wondering if my body didn't send out a fight against it, which is why I didn't feel so great a couple of hours before the movement increase returning. I definitely still have some results but not as strong as it was 1-2 days ago. In all fairness if this doesn't work I have no one to blame but myself. See my doc wanted to start with 30 units in that area, being a Botox virgin and a little nervous I wanted to start with 20 units, we compromised and did 25 units. I'm thinking in hindsight she was right and 30 units would have been a more appropriate starting point, and who knows I might need more than that. I will give it a full two weeks, but I'm already considering a top off to get it back to where it was if it doesn't kick back in.

That is interesting about how you felt feverish and what you noticed with the change in movement. Thanks for sharing that. Interested to hear how it settles in over the next 7 days.

Day 5.....
BGinVAJuly 22, 2013
Day 5 and its coming along nicely, everything looks relaxed but I still have movement. I would liken it to feeling like when you put a mask on your face and it starts to harden, you can still move but it feels a little stiff but not uncomfortable at all. I would be pleased if what I have today is all I get, I didn't really want a frozen look, but I know its still kicking in so not sure what it will be like in a few more days. Still no headache, flu symptoms or anything, wish I had had the nerve to do this a few years ago.

Comparing it to a facial mask that is setting up is a great way to describe how it feels!
Looking forward to hearing if things change in another couple days, or if you reached your max change at the 5 day mark.
So glad to hear you are feeling pleased with what you see! Let me know when you start to see it wear off. I'd love to hear how long it lasts for you. :)
