The most effective time to start Botox is before the lines on your forehead have a chance to settle.
It’s a common misconception that all injectables do the same thing. While fillers add volume, Botox is a neuromodulator. It specifically targets the muscles responsible for creating those "expression lines" when you raise your eyebrows. By temporarily relaxing these muscles, Botox prevents the constant folding of the skin. If the skin isn't being folded, the wrinkle can’t deepen. It’s essentially a way to hit the "pause" button on the physical wear and tear caused by everyday facial expressions.
For a first-timer, this isn't about looking "frozen." It’s smart preservation. By treating these areas early, you’re protecting the structural integrity of your skin. It’s much easier to maintain the smooth skin you have now than it is to try and repair deep, static creases five or ten years down the road.
