I'm 24 years old, but as I am obsessed with my looks, I am looking to find ways to stay looking young. Should I get a mini face lift now or only Botox?
What is the best option for a 24 year old who is beginning to see SLIGHT signs of aging, besides creams. I feel like my nasolabial folds are bothering me the most, and I feel I'm starting to get them because of my constant dieting and losing/gaining weight in my face.
I used to have chubby cheeks when I was younger but as I got older they went down. If I get Botox or some kind of filler, I don't want to look like I have chubby cheeks again, but if I get a Face lift and pull them back would I look overdone?
BarbieBionda,
Without pictures, it is hard to give you specific advice. However, at your age, you would likely benefit from a good skin care routine, exercise, and a nutritious diet. You may also benefit from Botox and/or dermal fillers, but without seeing you, it is hard to tell. Facelift surgery at your age is a bit premature. Good luck.
You said it yourself. You are obsessed. Self esteem has to come from the inside. I am sure you have heard that. You have a lot of the signs (concern with minor imperfections, yo-yo dieting) of someone who absolutely should not have plastic surgery or dermatology treatments, BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT GOING TO MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER.
There is a book I recommend for you: FEELING GOOD by David Burns. Buy it and read it. It is easy to read. It may change your life.
