Korean Broadcaster Ahn Sun-young Shares Her 25-Year Anti-Aging Secrets

Korean broadcaster Ahn Sun-young has unveiled her secrets to maintaining a youthful appearance, drawing from her 25 years of experience with cosmetic procedures.

On October 18, Ahn shared a video titled 'Recommended vs. Not Recommended Procedures I've Tried' on her YouTube channel 'This is Ahn Sun-young'.

In the video, she revealed, "25 years ago, when I started broadcasting, I often heard comments about my face being large." She continued, "Due to my short facial length and wide lower jaw, my face appeared larger on screen. After consistently undergoing masseter muscle reduction treatments for over a decade, my face has become rounder." She added, "I'm most satisfied that it helped me look younger, and I still get Botox treatments twice a year."

Ahn emphasized the importance of lifestyle habits alongside cosmetic procedures. She warned, "If the lower face sags, it inevitably shows age," and shared her tips to prevent the so-called 'Pinocchio wrinkles'. Ahn identified 'straws' as a major culprit of aging. She explained, "When shadows start forming around the mouth or corners, it looks awkward. Muscles that move frequently, like those around the mouth, are prone to sagging, and using straws accelerates aging."

She advised, "Whether it's iced or cold water, I always drink from a cup. Even if it spills a bit, I pull my lips apart to drink," stressing the importance of avoiding straws.

Ahn also highlighted collagen boosters as her most satisfying recent treatment. She described it as "an injection that stimulates the body to regenerate collagen." She added, "I even got it on my hands. Despite diligently using sunscreen, my hands aged. But after the treatment, the skin on my hands looked 10 years younger in just 8 months."
