My daughter started using botox 5 years ago, when she turned 30, to get rid of 2 lines on her forehead since she was a teen They always bothered her and now they don't. She recently told me she's had some filler too, something I never even noticed. She said that was the goal and seems happy with whatever she's doing since she never wears makeup and always looks good. She also told me the person who does her work told her not to do anything more, ever.
The best practitioners are not radical in their approach. I'm glad your daughter is happy! That's all that matters.

Your daughter shouldn’t be messing with her face at aged 30. Surely at that age, she doesn’t need anything done?!

Yeah I would have preferred her do nothing because I think she's pretty as is, but she's the one who has to face her face in the mirror everyday. I would have preferred she not get a tattoo either, but she did that a long time ago! Her life is so different from mine and I have no clue what it's like to be 30something in todays world.
I had it a few times 20 years ago at age 45 but my frown lines were already too established. Didn't work at all. Seems it can't really remove existing lines, but maybe prevent new ones, if you keep at it? I don't like treatments that are not "almost" permanent! I even had the corrugator muscle cut and even that costly procedure did nothing to erase my frown lines.
Face-lifts really do work, but in my experience "half-measures" don't work well at all. Even the face-lift could not totally erase deep forehead lines, but it sure works on jowls, sagging, heavy eyelids, etc.

4Q - 2020 results from Abbvie's website:
Global Botox Cosmetic net revenues were $493 million, an increase of 9.1 percent on a comparable operational basis.
I'd say Botox is still popular and doing well. This doesn't even include it's other therapeutic areas.
