Everyone is doing fillers and Botox

50, I don’t think too many.

I’m 44 and considering it. But will likely hold off a year or more. My wrinkles aren’t bad.

Y'all know a bunch of people, you just don't ask or notice!

I started to get bags under my eyes at 31. Just a little bit of filler, some lasers, some chemical peels, Botox and I still look 21 ?

So many people do it.

Why bother, then? Sounds like you look pretty awful otherwise.

I'm a professional in the same sort of smarty-pants, cultured field but that is slightly higher income. I'm late 30s and do botox and fillers and a slew of skincare stuff. High achievers are the target market for injectables.

I hope this trend continues. Soon, looking like a human instead of a duck or lion or statue will be considered a physical rarity, and thus attractive due to its uniqueness.

I don't know a soul who would consider doing botox. It is not the norm.

They wouldn't tell you because you're judgmental.

This.is probably true. I'm the one down thread who stared at 39 for forehead bc I thought it was making me tired and haggered looking, or like i was worrying all the time. I keep it to myself bc I feel like for those who don't do this it's this HUGE thing and some people project and attach a lot of things to it. Meanwhile the reality is you go sit and are done with it in literally minutes (at least for just forhead) and it feels like a couple pinches and you go on with your life for 6 months with a little bit of a boost about how you feel about your looks. It's just not a huge deal. My bff in HS actually has used it medically for a very long time now (not cosmetic at all) maybe that influenced me to not be so wary of it

I am white, 36, no wrinkles yet so I haven’t even considered. I know it can be preventative but for now I just use sunscreen religiously.

I had facial paralysis, so I would never willing paralyze my facial muscles!

I started at 29. I have fair skin. Lot's of people do it secretly.
