When did you start Botox or plastic surgery?

1. Who is good for natural-looking Botox and fillers in DC?

2. It seems to me that injecting fillers will stretch the skin such that, if you ever stop doing it, you'll sag more than you might otherwise have sagged. Does anyone know if this is true? If so, do you all plan to do it into your eighties or beyond?

I'm 48 and have just started looking into it and have been told that it will need to be redone every 3 months at $600 each time. That can really add up. You need to keep doing it regularly right?


I've been wondering the same thing.

I'm early 40s with pretty deep "11" marks between my eyes. Wondering how much effort/money/upkeep would be required if I started down the Botox path.

You thought you would grow old without any permanent lines?



I have that deeo vertical crease between the brows. I started botox on it @ age 50, but it keeps coming back. 57 now. I'm not sure it is worth it for me.

If it's deep already you'll probably never get rid of the indentation. Botox is better at preventing wrinkles from getting worse then actually correctly very deep ones.
Some doctors will use Botox to relax the 11's and then use filler to fill in the indentation.
