Skin boosters, injectables?
#1
Mid thirties now and noticing emergence of minor skin issues and other things that happen with aging.

I effectively treated minor hair thinning around my crown previously by using a 1.5 mm derma roller with a scalp treatment called "Nioxin" for hair re-growth/thicking.
In addition to using scalp oils like castor oil mixed with rosemary/olive oil.

So treatments do actually work.

......

I've been using botox for forehead lines for a couple years now with excellent success (takes a lot of research to really understand and get right the specifics of facial anatomy), but recently a couple lines have started to emerge under my eyes.

Using botox here isn't conventionally very popular:

Where the yellow dots are.

Something to do with skin laxity makes a lot of potential candidates unsuitable.

A lot of clinics have started using something called "skin boosters", which are basically vitamins/minerals/hyaluronic-acid that stimulate collagen production (sometimes called "mesotherapy"), and can improve skin creasing.

One I've come across in this instance is called "Sunekos".

The real danger comes with dermal-filler, as this is so thick it can block blood vessels and cause a mistake to result in blindness.

I'm unsure about skin boosters, this one doesn't look viscous enough to potentially cause that issue.

So researching them, logging about them and if anyone has experience?

I’ve had a similar experience with noticing those fine lines as I hit my mid-thirties. For my skin, I’ve been using a micro needling system for a few months now, and I’ve really seen a difference in my skin texture and the appearance of fine lines. It’s kind of like a game-changer for me, as it helps boost collagen production and makes my skin feel smoother and firmer.

I also add some nourishing oils to my routine, and while I haven’t tried botox myself, I can see why it’s worked wonders for you on your forehead. It's great that you're mixing treatments that work well for your skin!
