Is There a Way to Make Botox® Last Longer?
In addition to the tips above, there are certain steps you can take to make your Botox® results last longer, including:
- Hydrating after your Botox® sessions
- Getting your Botox® done by an experienced provider
- Work your facial muscles immediately after your injection
- Avoid too much sun exposure
- Wear sunscreen as often as possible
These tips can help prolong your results, but eventually, you’ll need to get maintenance treatments to continue enjoying a smoother, younger-looking face.
How Often Should I Make Botox® Appointments?
Your Botox® appointments should be set up based on the duration of your Botox® results, as this ensures you maintain a more natural appearance.
If you want to maintain your Botox® results, you should plan on making appointments every three to four months, or whenever you start to notice your results fade. If you’ve been getting Botox® for a while, you may be able to schedule your Botox® appointments every five to six months.
Am I a Good Candidate for Botox®?
You’re a good candidate for Botox® injections if you have moderate forehead wrinkles, glabellar lines (frown lines), or crow’s feet around your eyes.
Botox® shouldn’t be used on expectant or breastfeeding mothers. Be sure to tell your Botox® provider if you have bleeding disorders.
Is There a Right Age for Botox®?
When it comes to trying out Botox® for yourself, you don’t need to wait until you’re a certain age before making that appointment.
That’s because Botox® is designed to smooth away forehead wrinkles on anyone, not just older people. So if you’re in your early thirties but you have persistent frown lines, Botox® may still be a viable solution for you.
Botox® is increasingly being sought out by younger people, especially in the form of “Baby Botox®.” This treatment focuses on being a preventative anti-aging tool, as it uses small amounts of Botox® formula to stave off forehead wrinkles and lines for as long as possible.
As for the minimum age to try out Botox®, it’s recommended that Botox® clients be at least 18 years of age.
Will Botox® Actually Make Me Look Younger?
Botox® can be a great tool in your anti-aging arsenal because it helps smooth the very lines that can make people look:
- Angry
- Tired
- Frustrated
- Sad
- Fatigued
- And more
If you have frown lines that won’t go away or you’re constantly told that you look tired or fatigued, you may see significant benefits from Botox® injections. Botox® can help fade those persistent wrinkles, thus helping you look bright, alert, and more well-rested.
And those are all the key elements of a youthful, revitalized appearance!
