I am an actor and I need to retain the ability to make facial expression. Should I avoid Botox® all together?
Dr. Steinsapir treats many working actors. Treatments should be customized to the degree of facial activity needed. Generally the Microdroplet™ BOTOX® treatment is applied less densely in the worry line area to maintain the ability to furrow. The Microdroplet™ BOTOX® treatment along the eyebrows and crows feet is very natural and does not interfere with the activity of the forehead. There is absolutely no reason to have a frozen forehead.
