Botox - are you glad you get it?

Am 39 and have had my 3rd treatment this week! I love it! I come from a really wrinkled family and have had deep wrinkles way before I should have had!

For people who have been getting Botox for a long while, are you glad you started? Anyone had any ill effects of Botox? I always dread the droopy eyes but has’t happened yet.

What are your feelings on Botox?

I love Botox. I'm 30, started when I was 28 but hadn't had it for a while as have been pregnant, breastfeeding, and pregnant again. As soon as I stop breastfeeding after this pregnancy I'm getting my forehead, 11s, and crows feet done.

No need for fillers for me yet but will start around 35 I think.

I love it, I've been having it for the past three years. I'm 33
I have it for uneven brows and crows feet, it makes such a difference in looking fresh faced in a subtle way.

No ill effects either

Where do you go & would you recommend?

I love it! I don’t have a frozen look at all, just very fresh. It’s amazing the difference it makes it really is. Worth every penny.

I'm 38 today and trying to get the courage to book in for the area between my brows. The line there depresses me :(

Fluffypinkpyjamas · 27/07/2018 23:54

Hammers go for it, you will be amazed!

Yup. Love it. I go twice a year and it's brilliant. I had a very deep vertical line that made look angry; which has completely disappeared.

EnormousDormouse · 27/07/2018 23:59

Should have said I am now 46 and have been having Botox for about 5 years.

confusedmomm · 28/07/2018 00:03

I love it just the 11s been twice this year.

PolkaHots · 28/07/2018 00:38

Yep. Look like I’m scowling without it.

41 here, and have been doing it for two years. I see an absolutely brilliant plastic surgeon who goes the “baby Botox” route so I still have lots of movement.

You love it. Been having it 2 years. Always go to the same woman - she’s a fantastic consultant who really does a great job. I initially went because my eyebrows are very asymmetric due to an injury but now I just love it. I’m 38. Just had my first fillers last week, nice subtle result...

Everyoneiswingingit · 28/07/2018 20:49

I'm 47 and hate my 11s!! I think I look ok for my age and don't mind my other lines but they make me look cross. I use Frownies sometimes and they do flatten it out temporarily but I am scared of injecting botulism into my body!!!
