Answer: Not dependent as much on age as the appearance of wrinkles at rest. Everyone has a unique anatomy and tendency to make facial expressions. The more expressive you are - the more you are exercising the muscles and they will eventually form creases at rest. It's normal to see wrinkles in motion when you elevate your eyebrows. The big question is do you see the lines at rest? If so - then Botox may be a good option. Botox works on stopping the muscles in motion in 3-7 days and the effect is temporary - lasting 3-4 months. The horizontal lines you are describing are more difficult to treat than the crow's feet or glabellar (#11 lines) - so find an experienced injector who will maintain your natural anatomy without "spocking" or "dropping" the eyebrows.
