Botox or Notox Update - 4 1/2 months later

I think most readers know that I had botox for my birthday in February. Here are the before photos and here are the 2 weeks after photos. It was my first taste and I only got it on the frown lines between my brows.  Many, many people had lots of questions, particularly friends and family. It seems that people are very curious about botox. I don't blame them, the results were fantastic and I was completely thrilled.
Now, 4 1/2 months on...

I am almost back to my grumpy old frowny face again. My charming 6 year old has even commented that I need more botox. Thanks kid, it's really easy for a 6 year old to criticise. I was aware that botox would only last for 3 - 6 months. For some reason, I was still hoping that it would be more like 8 (or even 12 months).

To answer a few of your questions...

Was it worth $300? Yes, I received it as a birthday gift but if I hadn't I would have found a way to do it anyway.

Would I do it every 4 months? If I had the money yes. I would even be happy with only twice a year.

Would I do it elsewhere on my face? No, I am still only concerned about my angry lines. All my happy lines can stay and they can even invite friends to join them. I want to look like I have lived a happy life not locked in the Barbie Dream house staring blankly at Ken.

Do I want other work now? No. I am far from perfect but happy to look like me (for now).
