Some Botox myths need to retire. These are the three we hear most, in the office and on social media.
"If I stop Botox, my wrinkles will be worse." Nope. Botox gradually wears off and your movement returns. If anything, consistent treatment can help keep lines from becoming as deeply etched over time.
"Once I start, I have to keep doing it forever." Also no. Botox isn't a lifetime commitment. Treat regularly, treat occasionally, or stop whenever you want.
"Botox should last the same amount of time for everyone." Definitely not. How long your results last depends on your dose, your muscle activity, the area treated, and your individual goals.
The takeaway? Don't compare your Botox to your friend's Botox. The goal was never a certain number of months. It's a treatment plan that makes sense for your face and the natural result you actually want.
