They get obsessed or addicted, more addicted to that very smooth, frozen look.

And what happens is as we age...

Some areas of the face are aging and then areas that are being frozen with neurotoxin are not aging in the same way, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

But sometimes you start to get this disparity that looks kind of odd.

And it almost ages you more when you end up with a very smooth, shiny skin.

with no movement, no lines, no wrinkles in your sort of 40s and 50s and the rest of the face is giving it away and you get that mismatch.

And I think because it's such a mismatch, you start to look older because of it for some reason.

I know what you're talking about.

Yeah.

But I think, you know, if you want a guide of where to start, essentially people confuse movement with wrinkles.

So just because you can move, it doesn't mean you actually have a wrinkle.

So if you don't have a line at rest, you don't have a wrinkle.

So I think we need to move away from having no movement and

And think about, do I have a wrinkle forming?

And it's not too late to start just if you start to see a line at rest.

Some people think, oh, that's too late to start.

I've got a wrinkle.

I'm never going to get rid of it.

It's not true.

If you've got early lines at rest and you start treating that area with neurotoxin, they will go because you're stopping that muscle folding in the same place over and over again.
