I find this trend of women in their late twenties, early thirties who do little amounts of botox for ´preventative´ reasons interesting. On the one hand I´m glad people are opening up about their procedures instead of ´it´s just how my skin is´ but I can´t help but feel we should all collectively have started getting less afraid of looking your dang age.

Just look at Nicole Kidman. You can still tell she´s in her late fifties, just with skin that is tight as fuck. Might as well rock the rimples ala Helen Mirren than holding onto the last remnants of youth

Preventative Botox is such a farce too lol

A lucrative farce

I got so annoyed when I went to the gyno last year and there were all sorts of ads for botox and filler and cosmetic procedures they offered. Like it's not enough that there's a medspa in every strip mall, I have to see that shit when I go for my yearly checkup?

There is a medspa attached to my primary care physician so I see the ads in her office (though they're small and fairly unobtrusive).

Still annoying and inappropriate though.

Yeah I always find that ironically enough it actually makes younger women look a lot older than their ages when they start messing with Botox and filler when they’re still in their 20’s.

It just seems like younger generations are very fixated on wrinkles as the the be-all and end-all, but then a person could have some fine lines on their face and easily still look younger than someone who has completely frozen their entire face. It’s not just wrinkles alone that affect the age that you appear as, especially as it’s been discussed more lately how a lot of gen z look older than their ages, but I’ve definitely noticed how growing up with instagram filers and everything else has left so many of them absolutely terrified of getting a single wrinkle

It's just so weird. Granted, I have a fat face so wrinkles aren't a big thing for me but especially as a millennial it's like, really? Most of us look younger than our age, I don't need botox for that.
