Botox for a 70-year-old?

 Age70 is not a contraindication for botox use. After age 65 is off-label based on FDA indications, however. As long as your health is good and you are a good candidate and you don't have the any conflicting contraindications (discussed with your doctor) you should be feel okay about using it.   

The chronological age (70) is less of a factor than your overall health.  The original studies done on Botox did not include people over 65.  Your doctor may tell you that it would in that case be an "off label" use.  Having said that, Botox has an excellent record as being safe and effective. 

The other thing is have the doctor see what modality might be best for you, (Botox, a filler like Restylane or Juvederm, etc).  Together you will come up with the best treatment for you.

Hi Mood. The question for us is not your age, but how good a fit you are for the procedures.
There does come a time in a patients life where the wrinkles caused by muscle contraction, combined with sagging or drooping skin, will cause us to recommend a facelift vs. injectable procedures such as Botox. Without seeing you, it's impossible to say what we would recommend, but provided you are a good candidate, there's no problem at all using Botox after 70. Good luck.

Although the company doesn’t have a formal approval for your age, there is no medical reason that you couldn’t have treatment.   Unless it would increase the chance of a droop due to a weak forehead, which in turn could cause lowering of the upper eyelids.

Go for it!  Botox can address your wrinkle concerns as it can for anyone else.  Just be sure to mention to your plastic surgeon if you're taking any sort of blood thinner medications as you may have more bruising if you do.  Otherwise, you should be just fine.

If you do not suffer from a neurological disorder such as myasthenia gravis and do not have any swallowing or speech disorder then you can have Botox done at age 70
