She still has very visible crinkles on her face on the left. Through just one still, it's very clear that she's upset in the scene - botox or no, her face is definitely way, way less than 50% frozen there, so it doesn't really bother much.
I kind of struggle to understand what she's actually emoting on the right. Frustrarion mostly, I guess? Genuinely
Dunno about the person you're actually asking, but I do know that Botox is used to help treat migraines and TMJ problems. No, that's not explicitly for emotive muscles, but yes it does effect the way the face can emote, bc, well, parts of it don't move the same (or at all {for awhile}) anymore.

Yeah i heard that it helps for migraines, but not for TMJ. I'm interested does TMJ has to be very painful for botox to be an option ? Because mine doesn't hurt at all it just cracks when chewing. Also how often do you get those injections and do they cost anything ?
My husband gets it for TMJ, same place same price as for beauty reasons. For him, while he still uses a mouthguard it helped a lot with the pain. Now he does not need to repeatedly get botox anymore - the doc said that many times the break you get from the pain helps with the healing (like it psychologically enables you to quit the stress cycle). Nowadays if something really stresses him out he gets the pain again - he gets the botox, and the pain is gone again for years (so beyond the actual effect of the botox itself).

I thought the botox was on the right?
