[quote=Anonymous]At age 40, I hadn't done anything. I had some fine lines on my forehead and crow's feet, but my skin was otherwise in decent shape.

By age 45, things had taken a turn. I have been good about sunscreen since my late 20s, but my forehead wrinkles got worse, and my eyebrows and lids started to sad. I looked tired and angry all the time. My skin was looking dull and the texture seemed to be getting worse. No amount of sleep, water or diet changes seemed to help. I started using tretinoin at that point, but it took a long time for my skin to adjust. I could only use it twice a week for the first 9 months or so. I also tried Botox and really liked it, much to my surprise. I get a few units in my forehead, the 11s, and crow's feet. I look so much more awake now! It also improved my forehead wrinkles.

I'm nearly 47 and have done Botox about 3 times now. Along with vitamin C in the morning and tret at night (a couple of times per week), my skin looks better than it has in a long time.[/quote]
