[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Question for OP - would you use PTO for an appointment to get your hair cut and colored, or a visit with a personal stylist, or a mani/pedi? Because your botox appointment, despite being with a medical professional., is much more similar to those types of appointments than a doctor's appointment. [/quote]

Yes, I would use PTO for that, but I'd come in the next day looking obviously different.

So how do I explain PTO for a vague appointment? People will question it.[/quote]

You don’t. What kind of nosy workplace do you work that you have to explain everything? “I have a personal errand to attend to.” That’s it. When you go to a medical appointment, do you tell them if it’s for a mammogram or a cholesterol test? You probably just say “I have a routine appointment”. [/quote]

My coworkers are nosy. They don't question "I have a doctor's appointment" but they DO question leaving for an appointment that requires taking PTO. [/quote]

Great, but your coworkers need to grow up and concern themselves with their work, not your personal life. I've had a nosy coworker like this here and there. I pretend like I don't hear them or don't understand the question.[/quote]
