I Got Botox for the First Time—Here’s What You Need to Know

Is Botox worth it? After my treatment with Acquilla, I would most definitely say that my Botox treatment was worth it. My results are subtle (which was what I was after), but I feel that I look more refreshed and the lines around my forehead and eyes have lessened. Close friends of mine could notice a subtle difference too. As my brows have been lifted upwards, I’m no longer raising them subconsciously and causing the forehead lines. My outer eyelid area is now smoother, which means I can more easily apply eye makeup such as winged eyeliner (which used to crease), and it now stays put for longer. It’s also reassuring knowing that the effects will wear away after a few months if I wanted to revert to my natural state.

It has now been three months since my treatment, and I’ve found that the Botox has worn off. Movement in my forehead and around my eyes has fully returned, although the expression lines are yet to settle back in. Would I have Botox again? Quite possibly—but I have to admit that I don’t think I could foot the cost of a treatment every three months, as it is a big financial commitment. Going to see a practitioner like Acquilla is definitely worth the investment, as you’ll be getting the results that you’re seeking, as well as being in a safe pair of hands.
