The Effects Of Anti Wrinkle Injections On Young People

Sharing cosmetic secrets on reality shows such as Love Island, as well as on social media can affect young people and give the wrong messages, pushing them to have cosmetic procedures, such as Anti Wrinkle, at a young age. Having these treatments early on due to peer pressure and the ‘selfie culture’ can be a problem for several reasons. In this blog post, we will talk through this.

Although Anti Wrinkle is thought of as the treatment of choice for middle-aged men and women concerned about fine lines and wrinkles, there is a noticeable increase in the number of the younger population seeking out injectables. There are some advantages of having Anti Wrinkle injections earlier on as opposed to later in life, as it prevents the formation of deep lines on the forehead, frown lines and crow’s feet.  Young people who are suffering with acne can also benefit from Micro-Anti Wrinkle injections to treat and control the oils in the skin.

With its muscle-relaxing properties, Anti Wrinkle is also used to treat migraines, teeth-grinding and excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis). It is worth noting that excessive sweating (Hyperhidrosis) can be one of the contributing factors to social anxiety and stress in the workplace. Anti Wrinkle injections for hyperhidrosis have a double effect for not only reducing excessive sweating but also allowing individuals to feel more confident and socially active.  

At Vie Aesthetics, we are regulated by CQC, and our policies help ensure that we check every client’s age, we screen our clients and educate them about the treatment complications, aftercare and realistic expectations and goals. We make sure that patients have a cooling down period following their consultation as well as offering complimentary follow-ups to check the results of the treatment and the effects this has had on our clients. This is a process that all medical clinics follow. We would advise any young person who is considering having Anti Wrinkle or Fillers to visit a medical establishment and have a chat with a Medical Professional to ensure they are in safe hands.
