Considering Botox and Fillers: Need Advice on Consequences

Hello! I started going to a beautician on the advice of a good friend (she's 32, had her eyes and forehead restored with Botox) and after the first appointment, the beautician prescribed me Roaccutane and a facial cleanse. She said that afterwards, we could plump up my nasolabial folds (they are indeed pronounced, but I wouldn't say too much!) and a couple of emerging wrinkles on the forehead with Botox. Honestly, I've been wondering, do I really need this right now? And please tell me, what are the consequences of these fillers? Will it just dissolve or could it sag and deform my face? Thanks in advance for all the answers. I'd like to get advice from knowledgeable people!

The sooner you start, the quicker you'll get hooked on these procedures 😟 A beautician is a salesperson, they're interested in your dependency!

She'll suggest even more to you. At such a young age, it's not worth it.

Girl, do you want to look better? There you go, think about it. But 23 seems a bit early, doesn't it?

I'm 28, I definitely won't be thinking about such things for another 20 years at least🤣.

It's definitely too early to be injecting Botox and Dysport. It's unnecessary. Botulinum toxin is firstly a poison, and poisons can't possibly have a good effect on the overall health of the body. Secondly, your body will get rid of the Botox faster and faster each time. If initially the product works for up to 6 months, after a few procedures it will barely last for 2 months. You can have fillers in the nasolabial folds, the effect should last longer than the manufacturer promises, as you're still young. For the emerging wrinkles on your forehead, try biorevitalisation. But overall, you'd better change your cosmetologist, how did she just prescribe you Roaccutane? A cosmetologist can at most recommend a face wash, toner, cream, mask, to eat less of certain foods and if everything is so bad she is obliged to send you to a gynaecologist, gastroenterologist, have a blood sugar test and a general blood test, for staphylococcus and for demodex, but certainly not to prescribe medication.

When you're taking ROACCUTANE, you CAN'T have either injections or laser treatments and peels, and after you finish taking it, no less than 8 months should pass!!

OMG... O_O I'm 27, I don't even dare to start getting Botox now... Even my beautician tells me "If you start getting Botox now, what will you do at 45?" I haven't seen you, of course, but 23 is definitely too early. Try changing your beautician.

You simply need to take care of yourself, you can start doing peels, they refresh the skin and masks well. And then as needed, there are people who at 22 years old already have such expression lines that they can't do without botox.

OP, how can one wear out their face by the age of 23. Having to consume all sorts of nasty chemicals for restoration.
