BUT- MASSIVELY IMPORTANT-----Can they demonstrate to you, show you the original, unopened vial that it is GENUINE unadulterated brand name Botox? This is not something to mess with possibly getting a scam product- that can be very, very dangerous- it IS "botulism"- and you want to be POSITIVE you have a practioner who knows their anatomy, too. The forehead is full of threads of muscles which go vertical, horizontal, and all other ways. My derm took a moment, as part of procedure, to demonstrate that this was a fresh, unopened vial of product-for me to examine if I wished. Scam products can cause coma, drift around, ie into eyes, cause "frozen Barbie/Stepford Wife look", or worse. My derm was reasonable- instead of flat fee per "area"- it was 13$ per "unit" of product. Just something to be cautious about.
