Judge your result now; your injector can top up if needed.
Movement returns gradually and most people re-treat.
Botox relaxes the muscles that fold your skin when you frown, squint or raise your brows. Lines soften, but your face still moves. Most people want to look rested, not frozen. Deep creases that show at rest may fade rather than vanish. Clinic galleries often pick their best cases and shoot them in flattering light, so view them with care. A good result is subtle. Friends may say you look well without guessing why.
Forehead lines come from the muscle that lifts your eyebrows. Botox relaxes it, so the horizontal lines soften when you raise your brows and fade at rest. Because this is the only muscle that lifts your brows, the dose matters. Too much can make them feel heavy. A careful injector treats the upper forehead and leaves some movement lower down. That keeps your natural arch, and you can still look surprised.
The 11s are the two vertical lines between your eyebrows. They form when you frown, squint or concentrate. Over time they can make you look stern or tired. Botox relaxes the small muscles that pull your brows together and down. The lines soften, and your inner brows may lift a little. Too much product here can flatten your expression. Too little can leave one side moving more than the other.
Crow's feet are the fan of lines at the outer corners of your eyes. They show most when you smile or laugh. Botox relaxes the muscle around the eye, so the lines soften while your cheeks still lift. The aim is a warm smile with fewer crinkles, not a blank stare. To picture it, upload a clear front-facing photo to the preview and compare subtle and fuller smoothing with the slider.
Botox starts working in 3–5 days. You see the full effect at about 2 weeks. Before then, one side may relax a little sooner than the other. That's normal, so wait the full 2 weeks before you judge your result or ask for a top-up. There's no downtime, so most people go straight back to work. The effect usually lasts 3–4 months, though anywhere from 2 to 6 is possible. Read more in how long Botox lasts.
The overdone look usually comes from too much product, not from Botox itself. A modest dose softens lines and keeps your expressions. Tell your injector you want natural movement, and bring photos of looks you like. At your 2-week check, study your brows in the mirror. If one sits higher or moves more, a small top-up can even them out. Clear questions help you leave with a result you're happy with.
In the US, Botox usually costs $200–$400 per area. The common areas are the forehead, the frown lines and the crow's feet. Some clinics charge by area and others by unit, so ask which they use. Price also depends on where you live and who treats you. Because the effect lasts 3–4 months, plan for repeat visits when you budget. Dysport lasts about the same, so compare total cost, not just the first visit.
Clinic galleries show hand-picked cases. The AestheView preview shows a realistic, typical simulated result on your own photo instead. Upload a clear, front-facing picture, then drag the slider across your forehead, brows and eyes. Your expressions stay in place, so you can judge a softer look rather than a stiff one. The tool doesn't measure your face or plan a treatment. Use it to set expectations and to show an injector what you want.
