Some millennials keen on preserving their youth are turning to Botox to smooth away hints of creases on their faces before they become more pronounced.

A recent survey of American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery members reported a surge in patients under 30 getting โ€œpreventative Botox.โ€

And it appears to be a broader trend. Toronto-based cosmetic plastic surgeon Cory Torgerson, whose practice focuses on the face and neck, said heโ€™s โ€œdefinitely seeingโ€ it.

โ€œThe (millennials) are cued in to preventative maintenance and are engaging in injectable cosmetic procedures more commonly in their 20s and 30s,โ€ said Torgerson.
