In plain terms

What it is

Neuromodulators are injectable prescription medicines used in small amounts in specific muscles of the upper face. Botox is one brand and there are others. Kalina uses them in the forehead, between the brows, and at the corners of the eyes.

Who tends to ask

Is it right for you?

Expression lines sit in different places on different faces, and they move differently depending on facial structure. Start by saying where you notice them and when.

  • Which areas of your face are you asking about?

  • How noticeable or subtle would you like any change to be?

  • What should Paulina know about your health history?

How the visit runs

What to expect

Paulina looks at the areas you've raised with your face at rest and while you move it, because they can behave differently. She goes through your health history, anything you've had done before, and the expressions you'd rather keep. Whether anything happens on the day depends on that conversation.

  1. Paulina goes through your health history, what you have noticed, and which expressions you would rather keep exactly as they are.

  2. She looks at your face at rest and while you move it, because the two can behave quite differently.

  3. If anything is done that day, you leave knowing what was used, where, and what to watch for.

Being straight with you

Realistic expectations

Because a neuromodulator acts on movement rather than on the surface of the skin, Paulina looks at your face both at rest and while you move it. A line that is only there when you frown is a different question from one that is there when you are still. She will say when she thinks the honest answer is to leave it alone.
