Plenty of your friends have gotten Botox and avoided the dreaded frozen face, and you think you’re ready to give it a try. But how can you be sure that you and your injector are on the same page in terms of achieving subtle, natural-looking results? It starts with a consultation for Botox injections in Freehold, NJ.
What Questions Should I Ask at My Initial Visit for Botox Injections in Freehold, NJ?
At Dr. G Anti-Aging, you’ll build your plan with Sarah Tajudeen, APN, the co-founder who teaches advanced Botox training courses. Feel free to ask how many units she’d start with and which lines she’d leave alone! Sarah also goes by the Spicy Injector on Instagram, where 13,500 followers see over 1,000 pictures of her work.
Next, you and Sarah will look at your forehead in a mirror while you raise your brows and frown.
How Many Units of Botox Would I Actually Need?
Based on patient averages, you’ll likely need 10 to 20 units for your forehead and 15 to 20 for the frown lines. As injectors, we recommend starting low and slow, since adding a few units at two weeks is easy and taking them back is impossible.
What Are the Red Flags That a Botox Injector Is Overtreating or Recommending More Units Than Necessary?
Rest assured, you and Sarah will stick to the lines you came in for, and if one stays etched when your face is relaxed, she may suggest a little dermal filler later. If an office quotes you a unit count over the phone or plans to treat every line when you came in for two, feel free to get a second opinion from our nurse injectors, Mayra Tuba and Brittany Lucey.
How Can I Avoid Looking Frozen or Obviously “Botoxed”?
Then, you’ll sit comfortably in the exam room as Sarah precisely injects targeted sites with the neurotoxin you’ve selected. Within a few days, you’ll notice the lines softening while your brows still lift. At your two-week check, you and Sarah will look in the mirror again and decide together whether you need a few more units. Results last three to four months. You’ll see Sarah Tajudeen, APN, our lead injector, at our physician-owned office on Thoreau Drive in Freehold, NJ.
