At Sunder Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills, Dr. Sarmela Sunder believes prevention is just as vital as correction. She blends precision and artistry to help patients maintain their natural beauty through every stage of life.
In recent years, “preventative BOTOX” has become a growing trend among younger patients eager to stay ahead of visible aging. But what does it truly mean, and when is the right time to begin? Here’s what you need to know.
What Is Preventative BOTOX?
Unlike traditional BOTOX, which smooths existing wrinkles, preventative BOTOX relaxes facial muscles before fine lines have the chance to set in. By treating areas prone to repetitive movement, such as the forehead, eyes, and brows, it helps minimize the deep creases that can develop over time. Common treatment areas include the forehead for early lines, the “11s” between the brows, and crow’s feet around the eyes. The goal is to maintain a naturally smooth, refreshed appearance without compromising your unique expressions.
When Should You Start Preventative BOTOX?
There’s no universal age to begin preventative BOTOX. The right timing depends on several personal factors that influence how and when lines start to appear.
Key factors include:
- Genetics: Family tendency toward early wrinkles or stronger facial muscles.
- Skin quality: Thin, fair, or sun-damaged skin may show lines sooner.
- Facial movement patterns: Frequent frowning, squinting, or smiling can accelerate line development.
- Lifestyle habits: Sun exposure, smoking, and stress can hasten visible aging.
Many patients start in their mid-to-late 20s or early 30s, when faint lines begin to linger even after expressions fade. Dr. Sunder evaluates each patient’s anatomy and goals to create a plan that enhances youthfulness while maintaining natural movement, ensuring a look that is never “frozen.”
The Benefits of Starting Early
Preventative BOTOX offers more than cosmetic improvement; it’s a long-term investment in your confidence and skin health. By relaxing key facial muscles early, you can enjoy smoother, more youthful skin and potentially reduce the need for more intensive treatments later.
Benefits of early prevention:
- Prevents deep wrinkles: Helps stop fine lines from becoming permanent.
- Natural rejuvenation: Maintains a rested, refreshed look that reflects your inner vitality.
- Long-term payoff: Supports graceful aging with fewer corrective procedures.
- Confidence boost: When your reflection matches how you feel, it shows in every interaction.
At Sunder Plastic Surgery, the goal is balance, preserving individuality while promoting confidence and self-assurance.
