How Often Do Younger People Need Botox Injections?

Botox does not generally require different frequency of administration based on age. The number of units will differ depending on the muscle mass and depth of wrinkle, but most people, regardless of age, need to have Botox repeated every 4-5 months, sometimes less and sometimes more frequently.

Botox results resolve in 3-4 months. They will gradually resolve, but after 3 months, you can get a touch-up. Hope this helps.

Please watch the video below. I try to explain some key aspects of the technicalities of using or getting botox. It is not so much of when or who issue about who gets botox. It is about what bothers you. Often times younger patients will require less but I recommend being specific about what bothers you and seeing someone you trust. As far as results it really does make a difference who is injecting, how much and where it is injected. It is one of those treatments that unfortunately has become a commodity and it really requires a bit more of an artistic finesse approach.

The face is one of the first parts of the body to show signs of ageing. You may start to show visible signs in your early 20s due to genetics, diet, sun exposure and smoking.   Anti-wrinkle treatments are the best way to address fine lines and wrinkles in the upper face.  The effects of these treatments usually last up to 4 months regardless of your age.  If you have regular treatments you may notice the effects may last longer. 

The great thing about Botox is it can be used to treat existing wrinkles or prevent wrinkles.  Since you are young and in your 30's, you can treat the existing wrinkles around the eyes and in between the brows.  This will prevent them from getting deeper.  Typically, you get reinjected every 3-6 months.  You will know when it is time to come in again.   The duration of Botox can be different for everyone.  Regards Anil Shah

Botox effect duration does not really seem to correlate to the age of the patient. In most patients, Botox tends to last 3-4 months, with some patients getting a shorter or longer treatment duration. It does seem that patients who undergo repeated injections seem to get increased benefit (shallower wrinkles and improved results) over time, but the duration of treatment is not usually affected.
Botox can work great in young patients as wrinkles begin to show. Botox keeps the wrinkles from becoming deeper and prevents new ones from forming, especially when used in conjunction with a great skin care regimen. 
Always see an expert physician injector.
All the best,

Botox relaxes muscles for various amount of time. Some patient need the injection every 12 months and others may need them every 3 months. In addition, Botox or similar products last longer or shorter depending on the site and the amount injected. The frequency of injections can change depending on other treatments being some as some treatments such as fillers, lasers and PRP can increase the time between Botox treatments as the skin improves.Please make sure that you see an experienced doctor for a thorough consultation and assessment prior to undergoing any treatments.Best regards and I hope this helps, Dr. Sapijaszko.

Botox generally lasts about 4 months. The patients age has no bearing on how long the Botox will last on them. 

Patients are understanding prevention of wrinkles is far better than treating wrinkles what have already formed.  Preventative botox requires less product and oftentimes more time between treatments.

Thank you for your question. Patients are starting to use Botox at younger and younger ages. They can even start in their 20s and typically want to retain the smooth appearance of the forehead/frown region and their crows feet to prevent the lines from appearing in the future. The treatment lasts for several months but in some patients, they can last even 6 months.

Thank you for your question.  Botox lasts a average of 3 months, sometimes less and other times longer.  Age does not factor in the duration of botox.  COnsult with a board certied injector. Best wishes
