Pure Skin: What’s the Best Age to Start BOTOX®?

It’s Not About Age—It’s About Skin

Some people develop fine lines in their 20s due to genetics or expressive facial muscles, while others don’t see lines until their 30s or 40s. The best time to consider BOTOX® is when you begin to see lines that stay even when your face is at rest.

Preventative BOTOX®: Starting in Your 20s

For clients with a family history of deep lines or early signs of aging, preventative BOTOX® in the mid-to-late 20s can help slow wrinkle formation. But if no lines are present, we may recommend starting with skincare instead.

When Skincare Might Be a Better First Step

If you're not yet seeing visible lines, high-quality skincare and regular facials may be a better option than injectables. Medical-grade skincare can help maintain collagen, improve texture, and delay the need for BOTOX®.

Weighing Risk vs. Benefit

At Pure Skin, we assess your skin condition, lifestyle, and long-term goals. If the benefit of BOTOX® outweighs the risk (even at a younger age), we’ll walk you through a conservative treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Your Provider Helps You Decide

Every client receives a personalized consultation to determine whether BOTOX®, skincare, or a combination of both is best. We don’t just treat lines—we create plans that support your confidence and long-term skin health.

There’s no “perfect age” for BOTOX®—just the perfect plan for you. Whether you're exploring preventative options or ready to soften lines that have already appeared, our team at Pure Skin is here to guide you every step of the way.

Feeling Like Myself Again: Christina’s HRT Journey with Pure Skin
January 14, 2026
At Pure Skin, our mission is to help you look and feel your best, inside and out. For Christina, that journey began when she realized something wasn’t quite right. Despite living a healthy lifestyle (eating well, exercising regularly, and taking care of her body) she still felt off. Depleted. Tired. Like she was doing everything right, but not getting the results she deserved. “I was feeling depleted and tired…brain fog, all of that,” Christina shared. “I just wasn’t feeling myself.” That’s when she turned to Pure Skin, a place she already trusted for her aesthetic needs from facials to Botox and beyond. This time, she came in for something different: hormone replacement therapy (HRT), specifically the HRT pellet treatment.
