We’re welcoming Meghan Morrissette, my aesthetics nurse, again today to bring our conversation about Botox and other types of neurotoxin treatments to a close. We’ll be addressing more common questions in this episode. When is the best time to get Botox? Is there a better age to start?
Patients in their 20s typically seek neurotoxin treatment for facial balancing, as they haven’t largely experienced the signs of aging. By relaxing some of the facial muscles, you can also reduce the appearance of static wrinkles later in life, which are caused by repetitive muscle movements.
Social media has played a significant role in attracting younger people towards neurotoxin treatment and other preventative aging measures. This is, in part, due to the fact that Gen Z is much more aware of their appearance. If you’re in your 20s, simply wearing sunscreen is one of the best things you can do for your skin.
For patients who are more advanced in age, it’s important to be clear and transparent when discussing expectations for results. For example, Botox can’t lift sagging skin. This should be made clear to clients who come in with sagging skin as their primary concern.
No matter what stage of life you’re in, your aesthetics nurse should always conduct an individual assessment so they can customize a treatment plan for you based on your skin type, face shape, and outcome desires. You should also know the potential side effects, which can include bruising, headaches, or more serious side effects like the spreading of the toxin itself.
