You’ve probably noticed that the skin of the women who overdo it with salon procedures and peels becomes unnaturally smooth with age, which can remind us of a wax doll. It may lead to premature aging — the skin will become thin and flabby, and visible capillaries and wrinkles will appear.

Women’s passion for another popular procedure, Botox injections, may be revealed by the specific skin shine and flat forehead that is the result of muscle atrophy. It can lead to the loss of natural facial volumes, making the skin look older. And regular facial modeling, with the help of fillers, distorts the natural face anatomy and visually adds extra years. The side effects of these procedures are especially visible on people who are younger than 35 years old.

The conclusion: Beauticians and plastic surgeons have difficulties working with patients whose faces have been transformed by surgery and injections many times. So the later in life a woman starts undergoing “adult” procedures, the longer she’ll be able to look natural and young.
