    I used Botox and fillers to "bridge" myself through my 50s when I was menopausal, dealing with a changing body image and making great money at my job. No 67 yo and don't need nor want more injectables. I am retired, so happy and content, dropped the Botox/fillers/hair color. My "secret" now is great skin care (with actives), a good diet, maintaining beautiful hair, exercise and a happy life. ❤️

    Tried Botox for the first time at age 30. I’m now 40 with no static wrinkles other than minor fine lines around my eyes from smiling. Only get it maybe 1-2 times a year. My esthetician uses just enough to prevent those deep lines but still allows me facial expression, as i don’t like being frozen. Love it.

    Maybe a bit of a different perspective than a lot of people that I thought I would share: have a neuromuscular condition that acts in a kind of similar way to botox. Several doctors joked to me in my early 20s "oh, well you'll never need botox now!" and it was so crass - what I wouldn't give to be able to express myself, laugh, smile, live life, who cares about wrinkles right now! I decided botox wasn't something I would get, and the wrinkles I have now, ten years later and in remission from my disorder, are indicators of my health and ability to live well and meaningfully. It can be hard seeing my face change and additional lines show up, but now I'm slowly coming to peace with the fact that I'm just going to be a wrinkly lady as I age!
    I've been seeing this preventative botox stuff everywhere and it frustrates me when it's marketing as a *need*, especially for people who are still quite young. I'm glad that you guys provided such a balanced perspective that allows people to make informed decisions that are right for themselves.

      I have had bilateral facial palsy due to post covids side effects that neared gbs last year at 23 yo.
      and though it was kind of fascinating to be able to feel and learn things from such a situation for myself (i treat it as an important life experience despite it being at times horrible and at times an inconvenience,unbelievable,and at times funny situation when i was laughing but ppl couldn't tell and i had to explain, it was also scary because i was 99%/possibly 100% unable to move my face, which means you cant even close your eyes well when you sleep (hence you need eye lubricants etc to prevent them from drying out and being infected), you cant chew well without supporting your cheeks with your hand or drink well (you have to be careful so neither falls out of your mouth, because you cant feel your face hence its hard to feel most of the jaw and tongue either hence you can have slurred speech)..
      Plus your face may pain especially if you are doing facial exercises but it aint working. And the fear of it lasting for a lifetime/long time is scary.
      I had this situation for 10 days till proper treatment and till 1 month+ of slowly resolving..
      But its hard for ppl who have it for a life time.. And may be some ppl don't always make jokes in bad way but for those who do, thats not ok (especially in your situation when it was kinda problematic).
      Obv theres no way ppl d get botox to that level, but still just wanted to put it here because sure if the intensity of it was in the patients hands like botox then it would be like botox, but ppl cant control how much face is frozen in such illnesses and thats scary, so its also a reminder for ppl that get it done excessively and for ppl that joke about it as a replacement for a botox, of course depending on how its said i may or may not mind, because it can seem that way,but just stating the hardships that its nowhere like botox when you truely get to know about it.
      I too agree that showing a more a balanced way and where ppl dont freeze their face too much and get it in as low doses as possible, just enough to prevent the wrinkles but not enough to remove the expressions as the 2 comments below by @user-qz3nv8hi7d says.and may be its a good idea for ppl who just want to get them as a way to not over do it.
      And yep it really shouldn't be marketed as a "NEED" its ok to have people who come to terms with it and accept ageing.
      I have had premature wrinkles+eye bags or may be just eye bags that makes it look like premature wrinkles under my eyes since i was 15/17-24yo due to sleep issues and other health issues and though due to sleeping well and taking care of health they have reduced a lot i understand that i ll have to deal with them later or may be even now some of the slight premature wrinkles i have since i didn't use sunscreen before i was 18 yo at all because i didn't like its oiliness/the white cast/consistency/heaviness/comedogenecity etc (tho i did use protective clothing but that wasnt always enough or possible) and it took me a while to find the one i liked and till then i procrastrinated it.
      So i take skin care seriously now too..

You form a facial expression and then feel the emotion. The research was then delving into how limited are our feelings from using Botox type substances. And they found that many people have finished emotional feeling or growth. Fasciinating

      I’ve read similar things to this too. And actually a really interesting article about how babies learn emotion by mimicking their mother’s facial expressions. So there could be a potentially important side effect of mothers in their 20s and 30s getting Botox! Obviously this all needs further research, I just find it interesting that Botox is considered “low risk” just because there aren’t many long term physical side effects, but the communication aspect of facial expression is ignored. I guess there’s no benefit for pharmaceutical companies to fund research in this area.

      @@dah8789 I totally understand what you mean🤔. I’m sixty one now and the group of friends I hang out with are actually laughing at me that I’m not letting my gray come out fully instead I get blonde streaks so it is gradual looking.. I believe I won’t look good in total grey. They do, especially the ones that have blue eyes. Maybe in my seventies. My college girlfriends (live overseas) feel the same way. Two of them just got diagnosed with breast cancer so Botox, and all that jazz is not on their minds. They were never ones to follow trends or feel insecure. Even if I said something they would listen but still go with their decision. To be honest, I know one ex friend who did her nose and it ain’t pretty. When you look at her straight all you see is nostrils🤦‍♀️. I also have very sensitive skin, so what if these fillers mess me up even more. Just because it doesn’t happen to one person it doesn’t mean it won’t happen to us. I know I’m blabbing on but I think you’re in a younger group so you still care what others say. What if you do some procedures and they don’t turn out well. Then you will hear about it and you will hate yourself. I guess what I’m trying to say is please love how you are! The only person who’s opinion matters is yours. Try to do what you can to stay health so you have a quality of life. We are all individuals with our own beauty and charm. You can cosmetically look pretty but be a insecure, hateful person inside. When I look back at women I admired and loved, they all had deep wrinkles, not perfect bodies but beautiful souls. Strive for that and MAYBE YOU NEED NEW FRIENDS 🤨❤️💐🥳💪🎟🤩

  • @johnnarenee

    I love Botox. Currently I'm 37 and 2 days ago I was at an event where someone said they thought I was 26 (which mid-20s is the age people usually put me at based on appearance).
    I actually started with Dysport and want to try that again after years of Botox. I started when I was 32 and after a few months (seeing how my body responded, moved and had to find a new injector), I have been getting 20 units of Botox every 3 months.
    Mind you- the recommended units from the company are often higher than what you may actually need. My injector shared that the suggested units by Botox was like, way higher, but we are able to do less and get results I'm happy with.
    I think it's also important to note that I also eat healthy, don't drink or smoke, get adequate sleep, take precaution with sun exposure and invest in skincare. I say that because Botox won't solve all your concerns if you aren't always taking care of yourself and your skin. It might give you a quick fix but often times a true lifestyle change is required to get the kinds of results I think a lot of people are hoping for when they see people that have great skin or look young for their age.
    Anyway, I hope this was helpful! I'm happy to answer any questions and wish you the best in your aging endeavors!

    Also something worth noting: for people like me with hypermobile Ehlers Danlos(my skin is too stretchy along with joints, and collagen 3 and 5 aren't made perfectly), botox has anecdotally among support groups and myself majorly helped the early dynamic wrinkles and sagging from being repeatedly stretched. Especially massager muscle botox for TMJD from hypermobility as well as dermal filler or anything hyaluronic acid as it works by working with collagen so has shown to not be as effective and wear off quicker in people with collagen disorders.
