Is Botox outdated?
😎 As most of you know, I do get Botox and have been for almost 24yrs. I don’t feel I get the same results consistently, or with as much “wow” factor as I once did. This could be due to me aging daily, now creeping up on 58, or the trend of using less for a more natural appearance. Either way, I always look for more natural alternatives for my clients and myself. I received this article in an email and wanted to share it with you.

Is Botox outdated?
It hides wrinkles (fast)
But freezing muscle movement doesn’t improve skin health.
It doesn’t rebuild collagen, restore elasticity, or address why skin ages in the first place.
Skin aging starts inside the tissue, not on the surface:
• Loss of collagen signaling.
• Chronic low-grade inflammation.
• Slower cellular repair.
• Disrupted communication between skin cells.
That’s why researchers are now studying peptides as a different approach.
Not to paralyze muscle but to support skin biology itself.
Several peptides are being actively studied for skin-related pathways, including:
• GHK-Cu (researched for its role in collagen signaling, tissue repair & skin resilience)
• BPC-157 (studied for cellular repair and inflammatory balance in tissue)
• TB-500 (Thymosin Beta-4 fragment) – researched for wound healing and tissue regeneration pathways
• AHK-Cu – studied for its involvement in skin cell renewal, collagen-related signaling, and tissue repair pathways
These peptides act as signals, communicating with cells involved in repair, structure, and renewal.
That’s the key difference.
This doesn’t mean instant results & it doesn’t mean replacing expression with stiffness.
