I am 70 years old and I have forehead wrinkles around the eyes and around the mouth. Will Botox help me or not?
Answer: Glabellar Lines / 11s / Frown Lines -- Neuromodulators (Botox/Dysport/Xeomin/Jeuveau), Fillers, Lasers, Microneedling/PRP "For glabellar lines (or frown lines / ""11"" lines), we inject Botox, Xeomin, or Dysport into the muscle, causing the muscle to weaken and improving the appearance of the lines. These work by binding to receptors that send nerve signals for muscles to contract. Since your body makes new receptors and neurotransmitters all the time, it needs to be maintained otherwise the wrinkles will slowly return as the muscle regains function over time. Neurotoxins take 2 to 4 weeks to start working and lasts for up to 6 months. For deeper glabella lines or strong 11s, I use a combination of Botox with fillers, lasers and microneedling with PRP. I suggest getting a formal evaluation with an experienced cosmetic dermatologist and expert in lasers and fillers. Best, Dr. Emer "

Answer: BOTOX Hi mitch2558 The horizontal forehead lines give the appearance of being worried, concerned, and older. They are caused by the frontalis muscle which normally acts to raise the eyebrows. BOTOX can keep you younger for longer by quieting hyperactive facial muscles. Adding facial volume by adding facial fillers can improve the effect dramatically.

Answer: Botox at Age of 70 Hi and thank you for your question! In short, whenever lines are wrinkles are caused (or worsened) by contraction of muscles underneath them, Botox (and other medications in this family, Xeomin, Dysport and Jeuveau) will help to smooth them out. As we age more, we also more collagen (and volume) so other treatments to stimulate collage (e.g. Ultherapy) and add volume to skin (e.g. fillers) also work to get even better results and supplement the Botox treatments. I hope it helps and good luck!

Answer: Botox at 70 Hi, thanks for your question. I highly recommend that you consult an experienced injector in person in order to assess whether this would be the right treatment for your needs. That said, it's never too late to get Botox.
