When you're young, they're merely fine lines, yet facial wrinkles only get worse as they compound year over year (like interest). Yes, botox is a viable short term fix, but it isn't sustainable, and there's no such thing as a biological free lunch. Simply put, active prevention is the only answer. I work on my posture on an hourly basis, I use eye cream nightly (avoid crows feet), I don't smile unnecessarily, and I keep my neck in line with my spine (avoid neck wrinkles).
