        No successful Botox doctor is going to be this honest. It's bad for business.

          Vanity is a bitch. She also might have asked after getting it.

            I personally would rather not be 45 and look like a 28 year old lizard, but that's just me

              Do guys get Botox? I’ll admit at my mid 40s, I look like I’m in my mid 40s. I’m too lazy to pursue getting Botox but I like the mental fantasy of magically looking 10 years younger.

                Most botox patients are there for therapeutic reasons; it's a common and (if it works for you) extremely effective treatment for chronic migraines.

                  Most celebrities have gotten some type of Botox or filler, but don't expect it to make you look magically younger. Depending on your face, the doctor, and luck it can look you younger but realistically it'll make you look different

                    Botox really can help you look younger - it's not magic though, it'll never take you back to your 20s, and if you go overboard or it's poorly done you'll wind up with the classic botox lizard skin look (which generally means don't cheap out & vet your clinic). For touchup work though, and combined with a good (and sane) skincare regime, it can get some very impressive results.

                    (Personally I don't do it, but family members that do have found it really helps with their dysphoria about aging so... there's that!)

                      Yeah, that's a good way to describe it. You may look like someone who is in their 30s, but it's not going to turn back time and make you look exactly like you when you were in your 30s. It's more like makeup - you can look good, but you're going to be altering the superficial structure of your face to do it.

                          cheap, too. it's just processed Clostridium botulinum poison; you can brew that in large vats for pennies on the dose. In some cases, it's cheaper to make than pills.

                            my advice, personally? if you're curious, get a Botox injection. it is temporary, exceedingly well-studied, and generally does not interact with any other precription medicine. If you don't like it, it will wear off, just don't get it again and you're gold.

                            however, do NOT get fillers done, because from what research has been coming out over the past few years, the general consensus is that fillers do not break down in the body, and merely migrate when the dermis loses tensity. you will almost certainly need to get them surgically removed, and that shit isn't as easy as just injecting it back out. Though, I understand that recent studies have opened up a method of using some new kind of radio wave mapping to determine where all the filler went so that they can actually suck it back out piece by piece.

                              It's not a one-and-done treatment. You need to keep going back, so the doctor's incentivised to make sure you still want to come back.

                                classic botox lizard skin look (which generally means don't cheap out & vet your clinic)

                                I saw "lizard skin" and initially read that as "don't cheap out on your vet clinic".

                                  It's a toxin that's injected into your body, so personally I wouldn't recommend it to any gender...

                                        Also, dont get it done at some shitty medi-spa clinic that shares a parking lot with a Jimmy Johns. Go to a real dermatologist, a good one.

                                        Yes it costs more, but it is your face. Not a thing you really want to cheap out on.

                                        Beware places offering botox that also sell stupid stuff like led masks, overpriced skincare from weird brands that YouTube influencers peddle. Dont get it done at the dentists office (yes, some do it), dont get it done at a salon or chiropractor.

                                        Dermatogist. A good one.

                                          But think of all the time and energy you'll save having only one facial expression.
