  • Facial asymmetry that may be influenced by muscle activity
  • Questions about prior treatment response
  • Selected functional indications after clinical evaluation

Common Questions

Is the effect permanent?

No. The treatment effect is temporary, and its duration varies.

Can injections affect the eyelid or brow?

Yes. Placement around the upper face can influence brow or eyelid position, which is one reason anatomy and baseline function are assessed first.

Can treatment be planned from a photograph?

Facial movement and muscle pattern need to be assessed directly for individualized treatment planning.
