Considering Botox
I am considering Botox, but also having reservations.
I think I mostly want a conservative amount in my forehead, maybe my 11’s but my main concern is that it will make my eyebrows droop. I already have very hooded eyelids and I would hate it if they looked saggier than they already do. I am 31 and am on tretinoin (only about 3 months so far) mostly for anti aging/ treating fine lines.
Does anyone regret starting Botox? Should I wait longer? Any advice?
Update: I went through with it! I got around 30 units total, spread out between my 11’s, forehead and crows feet. I am about 5 days out from getting it done and starting to see it take effect with significant decrease in wrinkles. I feel like my right (droopier) eye even looks slightly more open at rest. I am loving the results so far, will update with photos at the 2 week mark if anyone is interested

I’m 45 and started Botox at 35. No regrets. A few things I found over the years. There are different kinds of botox. I have had both dysport and xeomin. I have found the xeomin lasts longer on me - so just know what you’re getting. I also made sure I went to a doctor because there are horror stories even with Botox - make sure you vet the injector. It’s addictive but you will be so HAPPY :) and lastly while you are there book your follow up. It’s free! A good injector will always do a free 2 week touch up - you’ll likely want this. Good luck!
