Botox treatments can start as early as age 35, though younger patients may opt for preventive treatments to maintain a smoother appearance long-term. Starting Botox early, before wrinkles become deeply set, offers lasting benefits. Unlike hyaluronic acid, Botox not only treats existing lines but also prevents new wrinkles from forming by relaxing the muscles responsible.
The goal of Botox isn’t to create a dramatically younger look but to relax the upper third of the face. Through regular, unconscious muscle contractions in the forehead, glabella (between the brows), and crow’s feet, wrinkles can become more pronounced over time. By relaxing these areas, Botox creates a softer, more approachable expression, giving you an immediate “refreshed” and rested look.
