Is It Too Early to Start Getting Botox in Your 20s?
June 11 2021
In the past, Botox was only used for cosmetic purposes. In recent years, it has been found to have several medical applications too. Studies show that people who get Botox injections in their 20s are less likely to develop wrinkles than those who do not. There is no point waiting around until you are 30 or 40 before starting this process because by then, your skin will be more resistant and difficult to treat with this method.
What is Preventative Botox?
Preventative Botox is a non-surgical and, in most cases, a non-invasive procedure. The primary application of this method is to treat people's unresistant skin before any complications arise. This method is very effective when it comes to smoothening out wrinkles and fine lines. Other benefits of the procedure include improvement of skin tone and texture.
Preventative Botox can improve your skin's resistance to future wrinkles and lines by strengthening the muscles that cause facial expressions such as frowning, squinting, and furrowing your brows. It can essentially slow down their weakening process to not have any problems when you get older.
How Does Preventative Botox Work?
Preventative Botox is designed to block the signals that muscles send to the nerves instructing them to contract. This procedure focuses on blocking neurotransmitters, so they become unable to give messages for facial muscles to move, thus reducing their activity in the process. As a result, the skin's appearance improves, and you get many additional health benefits.
The Procedure
Preventative Botox is straightforward. It involves a series of injections involving small needles in specific muscles to reduce their ability to contract. Such treatments usually take about 30 minutes, depending on how much work is required to achieve the desired results. With Preventative Botox you can achieve results in as little as 3 months. However, the full benefits are usually achieved by six months.
Benefits of Preventative Botox
With Preventative Botox, your wrinkles will be greatly reduced. This procedure can reverse the aging process and tighten skin for a more youthful look. In addition to that, it provides other health benefits, such as preventing migraines and loss of eyelashes. Some studies have found that Preventative Botox injections stimulate hair follicles resulting in thicker and fuller eyelashes. Of course, such results can vary from one person to another, so do not get your hopes up too high as there is no guarantee that you will see such impressive results.
Preventative Botox is more effective than other procedures on the market because it does not just focus on treating wrinkles and lines. It prevents such problems from occurring in the first place, which is what truly makes this procedure worthwhile.
