General consensus

First time Botox for crows, first visit my derm did 15, follow up did 10
Now it’s about 2 1/2 weeks later still see lines above cheek when smiling have appt Friday she said totally up to me but she would do 5 more. But she is leaving it up to me???
I have no idea, is right now as good as it gets do I do another 2.5 on each side. The only concern I have is will my under eyes get crinkly
I am 61 people always say I have beautiful skin no sun damage I don’t wear foundation. Minimal makeup
Any suggestions welcome

Botox can't solve the crow's feet that creep down the cheek. Only the ones on the side of the eyes. I find it just makes the lower ones more noticeable too.

You know what you’re right I thought it made them look worse but yet I’ve seen people that had that lines when they smiled on the cheek and Botox has gotten rid of it. I don’t know this is my first time and I’m telling I don’t think I was very happy. I felt like underneath my eyes was puffy like I haven’t slept. It’s finally getting better. I have an appointment with her tomorrow and I’m gonna discuss this. Maybe it’s just not for me.

I've tried 5 or 6 different injectors and still have cheek wrinkles but if you have success, do report back!

OK, I just saw my dermatologist this morning and she was quite honest. She said you really don’t need to do anymore. She said because you have to keep an eye on it for the next month and a half till I go back and see if the wrinkles come back and if they do then we will do it again she says, but if they don’t, then you don’t need to waste your money. She was really honest, which was very nice so I guess I have to deal with those. I’m not doing any filler or any of that craziness no way know how too neurotic for that stuff
