Glabella Botox: Worried About Side Effects?
If you are worried about the side effects of glabella botox, be sure to read this.
Forehead and glabella Botox combined effect
Hello. This is Director Kim Jang-ju.
If you tense your glabella, you will notice vertical wrinkles,
and if you raise your eyebrows, you might see horizontal wrinkles on your forehead.
These wrinkles are not simply due to age; they are traces left by repeated facial expression habits. Especially
💉glabellar botox helps to soften a frowning impression, 💉forehead botox smooths out horizontal wrinkles.
That is why many people are starting preventive care with botox these days.
If you manage it before your wrinkles deepen, you can regain a much more natural and softer impression.
The reason why you should get forehead and glabellar botox together
The causes are different, but
the two areas are connected, so if you only treat one side, it may lead to an awkward balance.
That is why these days, many people are getting forehead and glabellar botox together.
Forehead and glabellar botox ultimately make your entire face look younger and more natural.
Especially with botox treatments, satisfaction is much higher when considering both areas together.
Points to note when only treating the glabella
Many people think that
they only want to treat their glabella because that's all they are concerned about.
However, facial muscles are interconnected,
and when one side's movement is hindered, the other side's muscles will compensate.
This means that if you catch the furrowing muscles of the glabella with botox,
the forehead muscles will work more to compensate for that movement.
As a result, the eyebrows may rise excessively,
giving you the look often described as an angry bird impression.
So rather than managing only the glabella, if you treat both the forehead and glabellar botox together,
muscle balance can be adjusted to create a much more natural and softer impression.
Because this plan also considers the compensation psychology of these muscles,
you can expect a sophisticated outcome without awkwardness.
Summary of the effects of forehead and glabellar botox 🔑 Wrinkle reduction
→ Vertical and horizontal wrinkles are reduced, resulting in a smooth face.
🔑Impression improvement
→ Sharp expressions transform into soft ones.
🔑 Ratio adjustment
→ The lines of the forehead and glabella are connected, making the face appear balanced.
By treating both the forehead and glabella together rather than managing them separately,
you can achieve a much more sophisticated and youthful face.
Frequently Asked Questions (Q&A) Q1. Can I return to my daily activities immediately after the procedure?
👉 Yes, you can. You can wash your face and wear makeup right away.
However, it is best to avoid intense exercise, saunas, and alcohol on the day of the procedure.
Q2. When will the effects start to show?
👉 Usually, wrinkles start to relax gradually between 3–7 days,
and after about 2 weeks, you can see the most stable effects.
Q3. How long do the effects last? 👉 It usually lasts around 3–4 months.
If you consistently receive treatment, your muscle habits can correct, leading to a longer-lasting effect.
Q4. Is it painful? 👉 It just feels a little prickly when the needle goes in.
If you are concerned about pain, you can reduce discomfort with numbing cream or cooling.
Q5. Will my expression look awkward?
👉 If a skilled practitioner performs the procedure, it won't look awkward, but rather, your impression will soften.
Especially in skin clinics with experienced practitioners, you can expect a more natural result.
Q6. Are there any side effects?
👉 Bruising or swelling may occur, but they will disappear in a few days.
Sometimes, there might be a slight headache or strange sensation but most people recover quickly.
Q7. Is it good to receive botox frequently? 👉 It is not necessarily good to get it frequently. You should maintain a certain time interval,
and if repeated too short a cycle, there is a rare chance of developing botox resistance.
If resistance develops, the effect can diminish, so getting treated every 3–4 months is the safest and most effective.
Wrinkles are not simply a result of age, but the outcome of daily expression habits.
Botox is just one of the ways to pause the results of those habits,
it is not something that must be chosen.
However, areas that are interconnected, like the forehead and glabella,
are more natural when considered together. Thank you for reading this long text. Kim Jang-ju. Recommended Beauty Column Outline & Volume
