'I Tried Botox for the First Time at 29 -- Here's What It Was Like'This is what went down when I went under the needle |
Why More Young Women Than Ever Are Getting Botox I'm not the only woman in her late 20s who's had Botox. In an interview two months later, Dr. Henry told me that she's seen an increase in younger patients, especially in those who are in their early 30s. "Selfie culture is driving it," she said. "It's making patients very aware of how they photograph, and they're comparing themselves to their friends."
All those photos my millennial counterparts are snapping are also making them more aware of forehead lines and crow's feet. Dr. Henry also told me that people my age are more knowledgeable about how starting anti-aging treatments early can help prevent future signs of aging (hence why so many of us are turning to Botox before we have noticeable wrinkles).
