I've got botox done 2x now, along my frown lines. I notice beside minimising frowns and lines, it also helped so much with my acne. Does anyone else feel the same effect? I had nil breakout during the months it was still active, that was the only reason why I did it the second time just to see.
 
I think you should get whatever makes you feel good but never go overboard so that you look "plastic". The whole point of plastic surgery/Botox is to enhance your natural beauty! I'm 32 & I've been dying to get Botox in my forehead for some years now! When I was 17 or 18 ( in May 2000) I had my breasts augmented. I have never regretted it on day & it was one of the best choices I ever made! Botox is less permanent but there is no right or wrong age to start getting it. If it makes you feel better do it for yourself! ��
 
How old were you when you first got Botox? How many units did you get? I'm 24 and starting to get it for preventative reasons.
At the moment I cannot imagine to have botox injected and I am a 45 years old German woman. In Germany I have never seen a woman that had injected Botox and made her look better. They have oversize lips or no more mimic in her faces. You say, you would do it for preventative reasons. Since the effect does not last for a long time: What does preventative mean? I think a preventative use will not help you to look younger or better when you are older. I think you should do it WHEN you want to look younger/better. So you can save your money for a few years more ...
Think about it!
 
My reasoning behind getting botox at such a young ageis to prevent wrinkles from forming. I'm only getting 18 units total so nothing major. It is between my brows and a dab in my forehead. I think that if I never make frown lines than I won't get wrinkles? Does that make sense? Or am I crazy?
 
I had my lips injected with fillers about 5 months ago, was really impressed with the result.
Spoke to the Doctor about botox and he, I hope, gave an honest opinion and said I could do with a just a little botox to lift my eyelids, still thinking about it :confused1::shrugs:
 
PS: just for your reference, in future request Korean botox instead of regular botox. Its a replicated botox of sorts and has same results (i got it done on the 14th of May the day before i flew out of seoul) and is half the price!!!! Works fast too as my jaw is super slim now after not having botox for over 8 months my jaw muscles had returned

Agree. Korean Brand botox produces same effect as USA brand. Both lasts about same too.
 
I was told by one surgeon it lasts 4 months tho. While US one lasts 6 months? But then other surgeons suggest its exactly the same and only difference is price. Well ill have to wait and see!
