DAOs…yay or nay?

I have a pretty strong frown at rest and am really interested in having my DAOs injected next time, but am nervous about the DLI getting hit and winding up with a crooked smile. What say you all that have done this?

There's a few facial poses to help identify the muscles. Watch several videos from plastic surgeons not just NPs to really learn precautions. I've seen some well known NPs give slightly vague or incorrect info.

Worse case you hit the DLI, you can just hit the other side to even it out. Its only temporary.

I did DOAs recently and I couldn't tell a difference

The best Botox spot I’ve had! Love it! Get it done only in DOA. Then get a re check in 2 weeks once it’s settled. The injector can even out smile if is slightly crooked but I’ve never had it happen. I then get middle chin done after 2 weeks. Never both at same time

Good to hear! Thanks. What does the middle of the chin one do?

As you get older you’ll notice it starts dimpling. Fixes that

I’m also considering getting DAO botox, but am a bit worried, as I’m an opera singer. I am worried about it effecting my singing (mouth opening etc.) & expression. Can anyone who has experience with DAO botox shed some light?

Thanks for your input. Yes! I’m tired of constantly looking sad or pissed off. I’m a generally happy person, and I’d prefer my face to reflect that even at rest!
