Have I left it too late for Botox? (Photo)

Hi, thanks for your question. It's never too late for Botox. When you begin treatments again and maintain them, meaning you re-treat the area every 3-4 months you will begin to see a significant improvement. I highly recommend that you book a consultation with an experienced injector in order to discuss your concerns.

Thank you for your question and I appreciate your concern. The good news is that it is never too late for Botox. Choose a very experienced, qualified injector and you should still see a very nice result from your treatment.

botox can be used to stop movement lines, but peels, lasers and skincare can be done in office.

at home peels like cosmelan, enlighten and aerify along with dermarolling (EmerageSkin roller with anteage AERIFY MD ampules weekly, see link) should be started now to prevent further aging.

For facial rejuvenation, I would suggest a combination approach of
1) skin care with products and PRP/microneedling
2) PDT light therapy few times a month with growth factors
3) laser treatments like clear and brilliant regularly and a few times a year Fraxel/halo Viva, Co2/Erbium
4) Sculptra injections a few times a year for collagen production with fillers like juvederm/restylane/belotero/radiesse/bellafill
5) thermage/ultherapy for yearly skin tightening with or without PDO or cone based instalift threads for lifting
6) botox every 2-3 months to stop movement lines and prevent lines at rest
7) deep microneedling RF like Fractora/morpheus8 for tightening of the skin
8) Vascular laser like vbeam/excel V or BBL forever young treatment every quarter (3-4 months)

Best, Dr. Emer.

Hello, Forceful6130! Botox is known to help relieve facial wrinkles and can be used to help wrinkles at any stage. However, if the lines are too deep, Botox can help smoothen and soften the lines but might not alleviate them fully. However, an in-person consultation with your injector would be necessary to gain better insight toward your goals.

Thank you for sharing your question and photograph. Botox will still be of benefit, limiting worsening of your wrinkles, while also improving the appearance of the current ones to some degree. Hope this helps.

I think Botox could still be of benefit to you to improve the wrinkles on your forehead. It is also possible that surgical options could help as well.

Nope, you're not too late. It will just take a bit more work, but you can still achieve quite gratifying results from treatment. You will need Botox to calm the expression muscle movements and filler to elevate and smooth the etched-in crease lines that have already formed deeply as a result of the repetitive daily motion of these muscles. A word to the wise to other readers of this answer. It is far easier (and cheaper) to keep the horse in the corral than it is to go chasing after it once it has already escaped.

It’s definitely not too late for you to resume Botox, as you can still have pretty significant and measurable results. Always consult a board certified doctor for best results.

Hello,You're certainly not too late for botox in my opinion. I think you'll likely be thrilled with the treatment. The occasional person wants a little filler in some of those lines, but botox is miraculous--have fun!

You can still expect some improvement from a Botox treatment! You can also use other treatments to enhance the results such as Morpheus8. Be sure to use medical grade skin care products and wear sunscreen every day.
