The Anti-Aging Routine to Make You Look Young Forever | Masoom Minawala | Vibhuti Arora

What if everything you’ve been told about ageing, skincare, and injectables is only half the truth? In this powerful episode of The Masoom Minawala Show, I sit down with Vibhuti Arora to unpack the science, myths, and lived reality behind facial ageing, face yoga, Botox, injectables, and the hidden role of facial muscles in how we look and age. From facial muscle weakness, jaw tension, droopy eyes and lips, stress stored in the face, lymphatic drainage, and early signs of ageing — to Botox myths, filler concerns, and natural alternatives like face yoga and facial massage — this conversation completely reframes how we think about beauty and ageing.
