Botox (or Dysport) would be correcting the only FDA approved indication in your case. Many of our patients (our being myself and the contributors to this site...I do not allow our aesthetician to inject) tell us that their friends think they are in a good mood or have returned from vacation.
I would recommend that you try Botox injections once, and then decide whether it is worth maintaining.
Most of us have also noted that after three or four times, you can space your Botox sessions further apart. Some of us also are seeing longer results with Dysport (lasting 4-5 months) so you might look into that alternative.

Regarding: "How Often Do Younger People Need Botox Injections?
How often do people around my age need to get re-injected? Is it less, since my wrinkles are less severe, than let's say, a 50-year-old's?
I wanted to inject Botox in between my eyebrows and maybe a little crow's feet. I have had a lot of sun exposure throughout the years, since I was a ski instructor for many years. I undergo occasional chemical peels to help with my melasma and hoped that some Botox could help with some of the wrinkles. "
If an appropriate dose of Botox is delivered the wrinkle smoothing effect on the average lasts about 4 months (both longer and shorter intervals are seen). For the best effect with smallest likelihood of complications you should seek a Plastic surgeon / Dermatologist who injects his own Botox.

Botox cream is currently being studied nyc new york ny
While there is no topical Botox product available at this time, it is currently being studied.
Many medications can be delivered through the skin, but the trick is to get them to actually penetrate and work below the skin. This is the difficult part, and the reason most topically applied versions of injectable medications don't achieve the same results (think topically applied hyaluronic acid... it doesn't really help wrinkles).
Topical Botox is showing promise, at least according to our colleagues who are studying it. But it's not yet approved, and may not be for years. For now, injections are your best bet
