Do not worry

Gregory Turowski, MD, PhD answers: Will Botox and Restylane make my face look older once wears off?

Do you have to always inject Botox/Restylane once you start it? I want to use this on my forehead line and smile lines around cheeks only for my wedding. I know it might suit me and last about 6 months - 1 year. My question is do I have to continue doing it everytime or will I get my original face look with just those 3 wrinkles that I covered. I am definitely not interested in making this a life long routine or looking much older when the effect wears off or the white heads that some people have reported.

Definitely having the injections done has no influence on deepening your wrinkles or creases on your face. You might not like going back to your previous image, but it is a personal choice. A lot of patients tends to get that instant liquid face lift before many celebrations to look young and fresh. Eventually effects of Botox and Restylane dissapear but you will just go back to your normal self rather than look older. You do not need to continue with treatments unless you like the effect
