Is it safe to start anti-wrinkle injections at a young age?
Only if absolutely required, is the response! If you notice the emergence of forehead lines in your mid-twenties and it makes you feel self-conscious, you could consider anti-wrinkle injections. These injections work by relaxing the underlying muscles, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on your skin.
As the treatment is primarily for dynamic wrinkles or the lines that appear when you raise your brows on your forehead (forehead lines), between your eyes on your forehead when you frown (glabellar lines), or around your eyes when you smile (“Crow’s feet”), it is best done when these lines first appear as this will allow for a lower dose, better treatment outcomes, and less dosing as we age.
Furthermore, with repetitive movement, particularly in people with high muscle mass or active facial expressions, these dynamic lines can become static, i.e., present on the face even when there is no movement, which can be avoided if therapy is administered at the appropriate moment.
Finally, you may have these anti-wrinkle injections on an as-needed basis or on a regular basis. Many individuals get it done for a special occasion, such as a wedding or other big event. If you want to keep the effects for a longer amount of time, you should have these injections every 4-6 months or as directed by your dermatologist.
