You notice the people who have it done bad. I am a hairstylist in a wealthy youth obsessed area. I see a lot of faces. When older ladies go too heavy with filler in the lips and cheeks and too much Botox around the eyes, they start to all look the same and get that weird puffy alien look. But a little Botox to take the edge of the lines without changing facial expression ability totally looks nice and you wouldn't even know. A little filler threaded through the lip looks beautiful. A full duck lip looks ridiculous. When stuff is done well, you don't even know the person did anything.

Huh? Botox is a great method to prevent the signs of aging (given you don’t go overboard). Not sure what you’re on about?

I love your username lol. I won’t call you honey, but you are right. I suppose I was referring to people who go overboard.

No no no. You're a hundred percent right. Even people who do just a little end up looking like something is not quite normal. Like... Is normal for a person that age to have lines in their face.

Right. Maybe we’re just over-observant? I know I tend to hyper-focus on minor details.

The biggest telltale sign is whenever certain parts of their faces don’t move when they laugh/talk.

The frozen uncanny valley face alone makes me think this person is older.
