In plain terms
What it is
Expression lines are the creases that form where the face moves most: the forehead, between the brows, and the outer corners of the eyes. Forehead lines run horizontally and show when you raise your brows. Frown lines run vertically between the brows, above the bridge of the nose. The lines at the outer corners of the eyes are called crow's feet. Kalina uses neuromodulators in those three areas. Where those lines sit, and how deeply, differs from face to face, so the useful starting point is where you notice them and when.
Who tends to ask
Is it right for you?
Certain lines appear only when you move your face, and others are visible when the forehead is completely still. Paulina looks at both, because the forehead, the brows and the eye corners can behave quite differently on the same face. Say where you notice them and when.
Are the lines on your forehead, between your brows, at the eye corners, or in more than one place?
Which features and expressions feel important to preserve?
Are skin quality and routine part of the same concern?
How the visit runs
What to expect
Paulina looks at the areas you've mentioned both at rest and while you move your face, and separates the questions about movement from the ones about skin texture or volume. They are not the same conversation.
You describe what you have noticed, in your own words, without needing a treatment name.
Paulina looks at your face at rest and in movement and goes through your health history.
You leave understanding which categories are worth considering and which are not.
Being straight with you
Realistic expectations
A neuromodulator acts on the movement that creates an expression line, which makes it a different conversation from skin texture or from volume, and the same face often carries more than one of those three things at once. Paulina says plainly when she thinks an injectable is the wrong answer for what you are describing, and being told that is a legitimate outcome of a consultation.
