Upper face by botox (max 50 units)
What is Upper Face Botox (Max 50 Units)?
Botox for the upper face targets areas like the forehead, frown lines (glabella), and crow's feet. This treatment involves injecting botulinum toxin to temporarily relax the muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles, resulting in smoother, more youthful skin. Up to 50 units can be used to address multiple areas, effectively reducing fine lines and wrinkles caused by repetitive facial expressions.
This treatment is ideal for individuals seeking a non-invasive solution to reduce the appearance of wrinkles in the upper face for a more rejuvenated look.
