Millennials are hoping to prevent aging by focusing on “prejuve­nation,” such as injectables, a trend spurred by social media and celebrity trends. A reported 64% of member facial plastic surgeons reported an increase in cosmetic surgery or injectable treatments in the under 30 crowd, according to the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstr­uctive Surgery (AAFPRS). They are using these treatments as a preventative measure; facial muscles that cause wrinkles can be trained to move less, thus stopping wrinkles before they start, according to AAFPRS.  “We’re seeing an uptick in the popularity of injections like Botox, Xeomin and Dysport in millennials," said Dr. Edwin Williams, AAFPRS president and facial plastic surgeon. "Social media makes young patients increasingly aware of their lines and wrinkles, and thanks to celebrities and the internet, they know that there are ways to correct it and maintain their youthful skin," Williams said.
