For centuries, people have been fighting the natural signs of ageing. Many sorts of potions and remedies were concocted in their battle, but the one thing that remained a constant amongst the changing recipes, was it’s objective – to slow down the ageing process.
Injectable treatments for facial expression lines have become increasingly familiar over recent decades. However, treatment decisions should be based on individual clinical needs rather than assumptions about a particular age or appearance.
Some adults explore aesthetic treatments before expression lines become pronounced. Whether an intervention is appropriate, and what benefits or risks may be expected, depends on the individual and should be discussed with a qualified medical practitioner.
Many young users feel that by injecting young, they can reduce the would-be wrinkles from becoming deep, rather having to deal with already deep lines in the first place. Because of this attitude towards a preventative approach, most users don’t have a problem with the need to continually inject, but that usually comes after they have been doing, and not before. This can be misleading to those who initially believe that by doing it a bit young, will be the prevention they perceive it to be.
There is no guarantee that early or repeated treatment will prevent future wrinkles, and all prescription-only injectable treatments carry potential side effects. A consultation should explore alternatives as well as the option of no treatment.
