If you don’t take care of yourself when you’re a Mom, everything will fall apart around you. That’s why self care as a Mom is non-negotiable. Last month I did something for myself. I’ve always been self-conscious about the scar between my eyebrows and how quickly frown lines appear. Want to know my solution to my insecurities and a form of self care? Botox.
How is Botox a form of Self Care?
Self care is taking an active role in preserving your physical, emotional, and mental health. If self-care is meant to reduce stress, why not do something to minimize a mark of stress: frown lines between the eyebrow. While I don’t mind natural signs of aging, my tendency to make exaggerated facial expressions doesn’t help. Frowning, raised brows, and squinting are extremely common movements for me. Thankfully, Botox is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment to eliminate or reduce facial lines and wrinkles in those areas.
My First Botox Experience
When I was offered an opportunity to try Botox at a local plastic surgeon’s office I jumped at the chance. I’ve used Dysport in the past, but it’s been quite some time since I received a treatment. As a result, the lines on my forehead and between my eyebrows seem more prominent than ever. Motherhood is stressful and I see it on my face every time I look in the mirror.
My Doctor was friendly and also very knowledgeable about the procedures offered in the office. There is something to be said about a conservative doctor. During my consultation I revealed my insecurity with the lines between my eyebrows and on my forehead. While the Doctor could have insisted I freeze everything above my eyes, he described how he would apply minimal Botox for a natural, refreshed look.
My Self Care is…
Whatever your choice of self care may be, make sure it’s something that brings you joy. Some days my self care is an extra long shower while everyone is asleep. Once a week my self care is taking a ballet class. And every four months, my self care is Botox.
You look great! A recommendation for a cons4ervative Plastic Surgeon is always appreciated!
It really is amazing to me how the Botox minimizes your scar. Self care is important. Looking your best, whether in casual attire or more formal, helps your attitude and makes you happy, which leads to better relationships with others, in my experience. Go for it!

You look amazing! If you have a recommendation for a conservative plastic surgeon, I’d really appreciate it!
I know this is probably controversial but honestly getting Botox every few months has become my version of self care and I’m done feeling weird about it. I used to think self care meant bubble baths and journaling and all that stuff which is fine but none of it actually made me feel as confident as I do now. It started as a curiosity thing after I turned thirty five and noticed my forehead lines were bothering me every time I looked in the mirror. Now it’s just part of my routine like getting my hair done or going to the dentist. What bugs me is how judgmental people still are about it, like choosing a cosmetic procedure somehow means you’re vain or insecure when really it’s just another way of investing in how you feel. I was reading a really honest personal essay about this exact topic that was written by one of those ebook writers for hire who specialize in memoir style content and her perspective on the shame women face for admitting they enjoy cosmetic treatments was spot on. We normalize spending money on skincare products that promise the same results but the second you actually do something that works people get uncomfortable. Has anyone else embraced something unconventional as their go to form of self care and dealt with pushback from friends or family about it?
