TIL that if you are planning to use in the future it is better to start earlier, usually around the age of 30. The issue that usually happens is that people wait until their mid 40s and hope that botox can correct their wrinkles, so it looks quite mask like. This mask like presentation comes from when the wrinkles do not align with the emotions.

At least in Germany, a medical doctor needs to do the procedure, since botox is a nerve poison. Due to this factor any minimal mistake will make one carry around that mistake for about 4-5 months. This is about the time needed for the nerves to recover themselves from the poison.

For those considering the practice the best tactic is to use just enough botox so that one gets the desired look without becoming mask like.
