Sprucing Up Your Look

Give Yourself A Happier Face With The Help Of Botox

by Tammy Tucker

Botox injections are an effective tool for getting rid of the lines on your face that may contribute to you looking your age or perhaps even looking older than you are. Many people rely on this cosmetic procedure to give them an appearance that is more youthful, but this doesn't have to be your primary goal for getting Botox. If you're someone who may look a little more serious or somber than you'd like, thanks in part to wrinkles in certain parts of your face, it may be time to selectively get some Botox so that you look happier. Here are some considerations for moving forward in this regard.

Target The Frown Lines 

Noticeable frown lines, perhaps caused by frowning countless times over the years, can give you an appearance that belies your cheerful nature. When your frown lines are significant, it can seem as though you're grumpy, and this might not be the look that you're going for. Frown lines are the vertical lines that run between your eyebrows. When you frown at yourself in the mirror, you'll immediately notice these lines. However, even as you stop frowning the lines may sometimes remain evident. Botox injections to this site can bid farewell to your frown lines — and to your somber appearance.

Smooth Out The Worry Lines

Worry lines, which are the horizontal lines that run across your forehead, are apparent when you make a face that is consistent with being worried. For many people, however, these lines remain visible even when the face is neutral. Even though looking worried may not make you look upset in the same manner as frown lines, it can still give you an appearance that you don't favor — especially if you want to look as happy and friendly as possible. Many people rely on Botox injections to eliminate these lines.

Leave The Laugh Lines Alone

Laugh lines appear on each side of your mouth, and some Botox enthusiasts are quick to target these areas during appointments. However, if you're someone who wants to look happy, you may wish to leave these lines alone. Your laugh lines have developed because of the countless times you've moved your facial muscles to smile and laugh, and getting rid of these lines may actually make you appear more serious than you are. By removing the frown and worry lines, but leaving your laugh lines, you can leave the Botox clinic looking like your happy self.
