Direct answer

First, check if you use your forehead muscles a lot when opening your eyes. It's important to plan in a way that reduces forehead wrinkles while keeping eyebrow position and eye-opening function.

Before your consultation

  • Why check eye-opening habits first?
  • Is the goal to completely get rid of forehead wrinkles?
  • Should the glabella (between the eyebrows) also be treated?

General information, not a personal diagnosis or treatment plan. Suitability, risks and recovery require an individual consultation.

Why check eye-opening habits first?

People who lift their forehead to open their eyes may find that a plan just to remove wrinkles can lead to discomfort. Have your doctor check not only how your eyebrows are raised but also how your eyes look when opened naturally. The fact that adjacent muscles can weaken after botulinum toxin, causing your eyebrows or eyelids to droop, is also included in the society’s guidelines.

Is the goal to completely get rid of forehead wrinkles?

Talk about how much of your facial movements you want to keep. What looks like no lines in a photo and what looks natural and comfortable in daily life are different. If it’s your first time, it’s best to point out with your hand the areas that bother you most and discuss it with the shape of your eyebrows included.

Should the glabella (between the eyebrows) also be treated?

The forehead and the space between your eyebrows affect eyebrow movement in different directions. There’s reason to evaluate them together, but not everyone needs combined treatment. Listen to the explanation of which movements each area controls and decide on the treatment areas you need.

If your eyes used to feel heavy, can you get it done again?

Please let us know your previous products, dates, treatment areas, and when the symptoms started. If you have photos, they help to check changes in eyebrow position. It's better to review the cause and discuss options including adjusting the treatment scope or pausing it, rather than repeating in the same way.

When should I contact you if I feel discomfort after the procedure?

If you experience new eyelid drooping or vision problems, inform your healthcare provider of the progress. If you have trouble breathing, swallowing, or speaking, seek medical help immediately. Getting extra injections at another clinic on your own makes it hard to tell what changes happened first.

How do I prepare photos for a consultation in downtown Daegu?

If you book a consultation after work in downtown Daegu, prepare photos with a neutral face, raised eyebrows, and relaxed eyes. Although the official wrinkle botulinum toxin treatment list includes the forehead, actual suitability is determined after checking the condition around your eyes and your past treatment history.
