I am 35 and have a few fine lines around the eyes and more noticeable wrinkles in my forehead.
Is there any benefit to getting Botox in my forehead and around my eyes then letting it completely wear off and then waiting another month or 2 before getting more? It is a pretty expensive habit and I am wondering if this will help at all for long term wrinkle prevention.

Answer: Does Botox Last Longer if I Do it Regularly? Hi Momof2lilones. We have found that our patients that have Botox injected very consistently every 3-4 months have an easier time maintaining their results. In patients that come sporadically, they can expect the results to be gone after 3-4 months. For those that come consistently, when they come at 3-4 month intervals, they are just starting to see their results slip.

Answer: Long-term results possible with regular Botox injections I personally have been getting Botox injections to the #11 lines between my eyebrows for over 4 years. Frankly, it looks better now than when I started, and I believe that by avoiding the "peaks and valleys" of letting it wear off, you can actually get some atrophy of the muscles which cause the wrinkles.

Answer: Regular Botox will give long-lasting results Regular Botox decreases the stress on the skin and can help prevent dermal atrophy which results in static wrinkles. However, regular Botox may also increase atrophy of the muscles in which it is injected. This can be a good think or a bad thing depending on how you look at it.
