Studies have shown that some procedures used to rejuvenate the face were found to have similar effects on the face as UV rays. UV rays are harmful and have been linked to cancer. With the chances of getting skin cancer already so high in the younger population, exposing them to harmful rays early on in their lives will only increase those chances.

The procedures referred to include Botox and wrinkle reduction surgeries. New information suggests that older women are no longer the only people getting Botox and wrinkle reduction, procedures usually reserved for those women age 40+, but young women are now getting them as well. Why? The motivation seems to be that these young people want to get rid of wrinkles and fine lines before they start.

Some health experts will suggest that these procedures are not advisable in most women, especially those who are doing it as preventative measures. Instead, healthier preventative measures include wearing sunscreen and sun-protective clothing, drinking plenty of water, eating healthy, and getting eight hours of sleep.
