Botox®, Three Areas in Turkey
The complete upper face refresh, forehead, frown lines, and crow's feet treated together from £150 with no downtime.
Three area Botox® (botulinum toxin) is the gold standard for upper face rejuvenation. By treating the forehead, frown lines, and crow's feet together in a single appointment, you achieve the most balanced, natural-looking result, a face that looks refreshed, rested, and years younger.
When all three areas are treated together, the results work in harmony. Your forehead appears smooth, the deep lines between your brows soften, and the creases around your eyes relax. The overall effect is subtle but transformative, people notice you look well, without being able to pinpoint why.
In the UK, three area botulinum toxin treatment typically costs between £350 and £600. With The Health Store Turkey, your treatment starts from just £150, performed by experienced practitioners at a licensed clinic. The appointment takes around 20 minutes, and there is no downtime whatsoever.
What Is Botox® (Three Areas)?
Three area Botox® treats all three of the main upper face zones in a single session. Botulinum toxin is carefully injected into the muscles responsible for the most common expression lines.
The three areas treated are:
- Forehead lines, the horizontal lines across your forehead caused by raising your eyebrows
- Frown lines (glabella), the vertical "11 lines" between your eyebrows that form when you concentrate, squint, or frown
- Crow's feet, the lines that radiate from the outer corners of your eyes, most visible when you smile
This comprehensive approach is considered the gold standard because these three muscle groups work together. Treating them as a unit creates the most natural, balanced result. It prevents one area from overcompensating when another is relaxed, a common issue when only one or two areas are treated.
Your practitioner carefully adjusts the dosage and placement for each area based on your unique muscle strength and facial anatomy. The goal is always a refreshed, natural look, not a frozen or expressionless appearance.
Results appear within 3-5 days and reach full effect by 2 weeks. The effects last 3-4 months, and many patients find that regular treatments lead to longer-lasting results over time.
Am I Suitable?
Three area botulinum toxin treatment may be right for you if:
- You have noticeable lines across your forehead, between your brows, and around your eyes
- You want a comprehensive, balanced upper face rejuvenation
- You want to look refreshed and rested without surgery
- You are over 18 and in good general health
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding
- You have no known allergy to botulinum toxin
Three area treatment is ideal if you want the most complete result in a single appointment. It is the most popular option among our patients because it addresses the entire upper face and avoids the uneven appearance that can sometimes result from treating just one zone.
During your free consultation, your practitioner will assess your facial muscles, discuss your goals, and confirm that three areas is the right approach for your concerns.
What Happens During the Procedure?
Before Your Treatment
Your journey begins with a free consultation, online, by phone, or in person. Your practitioner will assess all three areas, discuss your goals, and create a treatment plan tailored to your facial anatomy and muscle strength.
Preparation is simple. Avoid blood-thinning medications, alcohol, and fish oil for 24-48 hours before your appointment.
During Your Treatment
The treatment takes place in a comfortable clinic setting. Your practitioner will cleanse the treatment areas and mark the injection points. A topical numbing cream is available if you wish, though most patients find it unnecessary.
Botulinum toxin is injected into precise points across the forehead, between the brows, and around both eyes using a very fine needle. Each injection takes only a second. The entire process, all three areas, takes approximately 20 minutes.
After Your Treatment
You are free to leave immediately and continue with your day. Avoid touching the treated areas for 4 hours, stay upright, and skip strenuous exercise, alcohol, and extreme heat for 24 hours.
All three areas settle together over the same timeline. Results begin appearing within 3-5 days, with full effect at 2 weeks. You will notice a smoother forehead, softened frown lines, and reduced crow's feet, all working together for a balanced, refreshed appearance.
Recovery & Aftercare
Three area botulinum toxin treatment requires no recovery time. You can return to your normal routine immediately.
Immediately after: Tiny red dots may be visible at some injection sites. These vanish within 30-60 minutes.
First 4 hours: Do not rub or touch the treated areas. Remain upright.
First 24 hours: Avoid exercise, hot baths, saunas, and alcohol.
Days 3-5: You will start to notice lines softening across all three areas. A slight tightness is normal and indicates the treatment is taking effect.
Week 2: Full results are visible. The forehead is smooth, frown lines are softened, and crow's feet are significantly reduced. The overall effect is a refreshed, rested appearance that looks entirely natural.
Month 3-4: Effects begin to gradually fade. Most patients book their next appointment around this time. With regular treatments, the muscles adapt and results may last longer, some patients find they can extend to treatments every 4-6 months after several sessions.
Risks & Considerations
Three area botulinum toxin treatment has the same well-established safety profile as single or double area treatment. The total dosage is adjusted appropriately across the three zones.
Common effects (mild and temporary):
- Small red marks at injection sites, disappear within an hour
- Mild bruising at one or more points, resolves within a few days
- Slight headache on the day of treatment, short-lived
Less common considerations:
- Temporary brow heaviness, possible in the first few days, resolves as the treatment settles
- Slight asymmetry, rare and correctable with a small touch-up
Rare:
- Eyelid drooping (ptosis), very rare with skilled practitioners, resolves within weeks
- Allergic reaction, extremely uncommon
All products used are genuine, regulated botulinum toxin. Your treatment is performed by a qualified practitioner at a licensed clinic with full aftercare support.

Frequently Asked Questions
If you have noticeable lines across the forehead, between the brows, and around the eyes, three area botulinum toxin treatment gives you the most balanced, natural result. Treating all three zones together prevents one area from compensating for another and creates a harmonious, refreshed appearance. It is the most popular choice among our patients and offers the best value per area.
The typical dosage for three areas ranges from 40 to 60 units in total, depending on your muscle strength and facial anatomy. Your practitioner will assess this during your consultation. Men often require slightly higher doses due to stronger facial muscles. The dosage is carefully calculated for each area to ensure a natural, balanced result.
Absolutely. Many of our patients are first-time botulinum toxin users. Your practitioner will take a conservative approach, using a moderate dose that can be adjusted at a follow-up if needed. Starting with a slightly lower dose is always preferable, you can add more, but you cannot remove it. Most first-time patients are delighted with how natural and subtle the results look.
When performed well, botulinum toxin should not be obvious. The goal is for people to notice that you look well and refreshed, not that you have had a treatment. Skilled practitioners focus on softening lines while preserving natural expression. You will still be able to smile, raise your eyebrows, and show emotion, the movement is simply smoother and more relaxed.
There is no set age to start botulinum toxin treatment. Some patients begin in their late 20s or early 30s as a preventative measure, while others start in their 40s, 50s, or later to address lines that have already formed. The right time is when the lines bother you enough that you want to do something about them. Botulinum toxin is effective at any age, though earlier treatment can help prevent deeper lines from developing.
