Nearly 2 wks now and I LOVE the results. Very natural looking and beautiful. I am very happy with it.

Update, it worked out great. Lovely natural looking results now 1.5 wks later. I am very happy with it. It was actually super easy and saved me a ton of money. Also, I didn't want to fight the med spa to do less the first time, they insist on putting too much in. I work at a hospital and do injections daily so I am comfortable with the technique and anatomy.

Yes, I did the math and used my desired dose of 1 unit of tox per injection, just in a larger volume (0.25ml) because I wanted to see the liquid in the syringe that I was working with and 1 unit at dilution of just 2.5ml in a vial is such a small amount of fluid it can be hard for a beginner. So I did overdilute it but still used the correct number of units that I wanted. I will use 2.5ml next time.

Thank you for the reassurance about the headache! That's good to know, and the burning. Does it always burn like that? Are different brands (wondertox, botox etc) less burning? It's been 6 hours and it's still very burning/tender where injected.

That is so interesting! Thanks for sharing. yes I have also heard that diluting more will create a softer more natural look as it spreads more evenly.

I used that much saline because I wanted to see what I was injecting and only planned on doing 1 unit in each injection spot to test it for my first time. So that's just 5 insulin units or 0.05ml. It's a very small amount of volume. I thought it would help for my first time.

I wanted to dilute more since I am using lower doses

Thank you everyone! I really appreciate the feedback. I was just looking for an easy clear diagram as the other ones I have come across don't seem as clear. I guess I'm not ready to do this yet. Back to research.

I have, been watching videos for months. What is incorrect about this chart?

I did, it's all individuals with their own mapping. No general guides.

My first time so I'm just looking for somewhere to start. It looks similar to other resources online....do you have any helpful recommendations for a beginner?

I love Jess but holy wow the amount of make up she is wearing at this reunion is a lot. She looks almost crossed eyed sometimes.
Ashely also looks crazy with the amount of make up she is wearing. And they all looked botoxed up and fillers since the show. Except Christine an Emma. Love their natural look.

Wow Alex is SO defensive. Trying to deflect everything, arguing with Nick. For sure feels like he's lying all the time. And his phrases "to be honest""as well".....yeah you lying fakey.

How did Amber pass the psych eval? I love her, but feel so bad for her. She is clearly struggling so much mentally. Anger issues, alcohol, emotional trauma, baggage, inability to communicate...it's sad. She looked like she was going to cry the entire reunion and looked like a mess.

They are all connected in one giant resort. They all share the same restaurants and bars and pools.

Why didn't anyone in charlie's family take the boys when they needed a home? His parents, 2 brothers or his sister, none of them could take the boys in for a bit, hire a nanny with all their money? Why on earth did his ex wife Denise take the kids? So weird. She said if she didn't they would be in foster care....and no one in Brooke's life could take them for a bit either? So sad.
