BOTOX at 71

Posted by hopenr @hopenr, Mar 12, 2025

I look in the mirror some days and see someone older than I feel. I am 71 and wonder if anyone has had BOTOX at my age? Or filler? Any suggestions?

Botox lasts about 3-4 months. $200 dollars or so. It depends upon where you’re located. It takes around 5 minutes or so. Don’t rub on the area for a few days, it takes about a week to see full results. No special precautions.

I have but with a well experienced dermatologist. No problems. Stay away from doctors who take a class or who haven’t done this for long. I am 80 and am having cosmetic Botox. An experience derm uses other products, not just Botox. It depends on the end results desired and the part of your face.

Go on You Tube. You can find how to apply make to a senior or older woman. Don’t follow hip youngsters-they make us look like a clown. Find a well known make up artist. You can Google that.
