BOTOX at 71

Posted by hopenr @hopenr, Mar 12 10:29am

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?

$144? What state are you in? That sounds like a great price.

"Botox... between my eyebrows" -- What's the approximate charge for this? How long does the procedure take? Any particular precautions to take? And about how long does it last on average?

Thank you. Asking for a friend.

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.

I agree- I try and dress stylishly and have gone back to wearing some makeup although I probably need a tutorial. 🙂 Wondering about Botox.

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.
