When Should I Start Getting BOTOX® Cosmetic?

Preventative BOTOX® Cosmetic is the latest cosmetic trend and allows you to get a jump start on the signs of aging so that you can stop it before it starts or gets worse.

You know when your parents used to say, “Don’t make that face, or it’ll stay that way.” Well, it’s going to happen, not when you’re five, but when you’re older. Constant muscle movements like squinting, laughing, and frowning eventually take a toll on your face, and these lines begin to show more often, even becoming permanent. But preventative BOTOX® Cosmetic can help you avoid those lines and facial blemishes before they become something to worry about.

Am I Old Enough?

BOTOX® Cosmetic is FDA approved for patients 18 years and older. Most professionals believe that patients who are in their mid to late 20s and early 30s are at a good age for preventative treatment sessions. Before that time, it is doubtful that you’d have enough lines and wrinkles to really worry about. However, focusing on proper skincare routines and wearing sunscreen is very important for skin health and aesthetics in your earlier years.

What Should I Expect With Preventative BOTOX® Cosmetic?

First, you will have a consultation to go over your cosmetic goals and expectations. During the appointment, you will be able to discuss any concerns and ask any questions you may have. The professionals at the Institute of Anti-Aging Medicine and Skin Spa will explain that BOTOX® Cosmetic is a neuromodulator that uses a diluted form of botulinum toxin A to block the nerve signals that are sent to the facial muscles. This temporarily immobilizes the muscles in the treated area, giving patients a smooth aesthetic while making them appear younger.

Let’s Do This!

Preventative treatments can limit the evolution of future wrinkles as well as reduce any treatments that may be required in the future. Additionally, looking and feeling your best is a major help to your self-esteem and confidence. If you are interested in BOTOX® Cosmetic treatments for yourself, then schedule a consultation with us. Your results will last a few months, and if you like the results and the way they make you feel, then maintenance treatments can be scheduled to keep your natural-looking facial aesthetic looking great year-round!
