Ask any plastic surgeon what the most requested anti-aging treatments are and Botox will undoubtedly be at the top of the list. As reported by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), more than 7 million injection treatments, including Botox were performed in 2017 alone.
Though the popular wrinkle smoothing treatment is typically associated with middle-aged people, millennials have added the procedure to their regular beauty regime. Everyone wants a flawless, smooth complexion and many people opt to receive the wrinkle reduction treatment years before gravity takes its inevitable toll. Dr. Cameron Rokhsar, founder of the aesthetic medicine facility New York Cosmetic, Skin and Laser Surgery Center and a New York Botox specialist, is an advocate for preventative Botox sessions.
Botox Treatments Popular Among Millennials
Yearly reports from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons confirm the preventative Botox trend, as procedures rose 28% since 2010 among 20 to 29-year-olds. Wondering why people without wrinkles are getting Botox injections? Just like it’s best to apply sunscreen before risking the chance of damaging your sensitive skin, the younger generation wants to combat signs of aging before they appear. Perhaps the prevalence of social media has contributed to the increasing popularity of facials, laser and cosmetic treatments in the past decade. With millions of selfies posted on a daily basis, everyone wants to be shown in their best light, which often includes the absence of pesky expression lines.
The Best Age for Botox – There Really Isn’t One
Since there is no exact appropriate age to begin treatments, Botox in your twenties isn’t a bad idea. If you notice wrinkles that are beginning to stick around even while your face is at rest, it could be the perfect time to consider Botox cosmetic injections. Of course, the ideal treatment method depends on the degree of sun damage, smokers lines and your particular skin tone, so a combination of fillers may be more suitable to your needs. Botox, a FDA-approved neuromodulator, smoothes and prevents frown and smile lines. For optimal results, it is tailored specifically to your unique concerns. As a NYC and Long Island Botox specialist, Dr. Rokhsar sees a lot of patients in their mid to late 20’s who are concerned about fine lines and wrinkles. Offering a wide variety of injectable non-invasive treatments, he always reminds patients that timing is key to achieving impressive results. If you’re striving for youthful skin, treating signs of aging early on will produce the best results.
Deciding on Botox Injections with Dr. Rokhsar in New York
Though Botox works by relaxing the underlying muscles, it also calms the overlying skin and prevents wrinkles from forming. A good skin care regime can be complimented with Botox injections, but requires the skill and finesse of a board-certified dermatologist to prevent the overdone and frozen look. If you would like to improve the appearance of your face and prevent or diminish fine lines and wrinkles, contact Dr. Rokhsar today. He specializes in facial rejuvenation procedures and performs Botox injections at his NYC and Long Island offices.
