Basically, the rationale for starting Botox early is the prevent the permanent development of deep, inset wrinkles that will not go away if Botox is started after the fact. Statistically, the average woman begins to show signs of facial aging around the age of 25. The first signs of aging in women are fine lines around the eyes (crow's feet) and around the mouth. The "elevens" in the glabella between the eyebrows is common too. This is because women's facial skin is thinner than men. Men have thicker skin and an increased blood supply to the skin of the face which is necessary to support the growth of thick facial hair. So, men age later starting around age 30-32. When men age, the wrinkles tend to be larger and thicker furrows. the strategic use of Botox can be beneficial for both men and women. I hope this helps.
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.
The general consensus is that aesthetic injection treatments are able to minimize lines, wrinkles that may develop with time and, unfortunately, become permanent. Even better than using Botox at a young age is the practice of wearing sunscreen daily and practicing good skin health early on. Preventative measures will always serve one well. As with all aesthetic treatments...balance is the key.
If you do not have wrinkles then you do not need to start Botox at an early age. If you have dynamic wrinkles (wrinkles that occur when you animate) then using Botox will help prevent the formation of static wrinkles (wrinkles that occur even at rest). Good Luck.
I have heard this as a reason for having treatment at young age. It is a silly argument. Why have fillers and BOTOX at a young age? Well how about they make you look more attractive? This to me seems like the best reason.
