I have had botox in the past, just not in last two years. Had only between brows.
Answer: Botox at age 66 Although the official FDA labelling for Botox is for people 65 and under, it can be (and is often) used as an "off-label" treatment for healthly people over 65. Provided you don't have any other medical issues that complicate Botox injection, like being on blood thinners, or having certain neurologic disorders, you should be able to have Botox at age 66. All the best,

There is no age requirements for Botox treatment. Botox works by weakening the muscles that crease the overlying skin in animation or dynamic wrinkles. We treat patients of all ages with this great procedure that has an incredibly high patient satisfaction rating.

Answer: Never Too Old for Botox
The reason that many people think there is an "age restriction" when it comes to Botox is because the original studies had patients aged 65 or younger, so the FDA gave approval up to that age. However, treating older patients is done routinely. Some of my happiest patients are older than 65 and love the way they look after treatment!
So, my advice to you is go for it. I am sure, if you are like many of my “younger” patients you will love it!

Answer: Botox Over the Age of 65? Hi Reno. The proof is in the pudding. If Botox has gotten you satisfactory results in the past then there is no reason to believe it won't now, as long as you are still a good candidate (anatomically speaking). Botox is not indicated (FDA approved) for those over the age of 65 because they were excluded from the study. Try it again and if you like it you have your answer. There's no reason why you can't still use Botox.

Answer: Botox in patients over 65
Botox is labeled for use in patients under the age of 65 but this was because there was some evidence that "older patients" have diminished neural junctions and may demonstrate a diminished response. They were therefore excluded from the initial study approval. However, this does not mean it is less effective.
