Me too. Curious though, when we lose weight will all the wrinkles come at once? How does that work? Are we still wrinkled under the fat?
I get the two long lines in my cheeks when I dip below 160. I also have a surgical scar on my abdomen that is flat and barely noticeable but starts to pucker at 175. By 160, it’s a mess.
Yes. I went from an unwrinkled BMI 24 to a BMI 20 and needed filler in my laugh lines. And yes, it happens quickly, basically as soon as you lose the weight.
I'm tempted to not type this because DCUM is mean, and this comment could be interpreted as mean, and I do not mean it meanly. (Honestly!) A lot of the reason that faces sag when people lose weight is because their skin grew when they were larger and the weightloss simply deflates the excess skin. I experienced this myself. I had a 70 lb weight gain during my pregnancy and, when I finished and lost the weight, I had visible nasolabial folds. I did not have them before.
People who have always held steady at a BMI of 20 are not going to routinely have visible nasolabial folds at a young age.

Honestly, I don't think Botox and fillers really make people look younger, it just makes them look better. If you did get this stuff done I'm sure you'd still look 52, but honestly you'd probably look more attractive
I agree with this. People who are 50 do not look 30, no matter what posters here claim and how often they get carded. But smoothing the wrinkles on your forehead does make you look more well rested and less angry.
I don’t know, Kate Beckinsale is 45 or 46 but looks to me like she’s in her 20’s.

How do you know? I do it and I haven't told anyone. I imagine most people keep it rather quiet.
I would know! You ALWAYS can tell when someone gets it done, because...frozen face! You don’t realize it, but you look surprised all the time!
(That was sarcasm)

I am all for lasers and microneedling so whatever works for you.
