YouGov 2026 Finds About One-Third in U.S. and Britain Prioritize Preventing Ageing

Most of the category’s spending sits with a small 'aging preventer' segment.

Overview

  • YouGov released its 2026 anti-ageing reports Wednesday, finding 35% of U.S. adults and 34% of Britons say preventing signs of ageing is important.
  • In the U.S., spending clusters in this group as 19% of preventers spend more than $50 a month, compared with 5% of maintainers and 2% of indifferent consumers.
  • Great Britain shows a similar pattern as 27% of preventers spend at least £25 a month, compared with 8% of maintainers and 3% of indifferent consumers.
  • Awareness outpaces usage for advanced options in the U.S., with about 62% aware of Botox yet only 3% reporting use, while routine skincare shows 49% awareness and 20% use.
  • The reports note most people lean on everyday routines like skincare, sleep, diet, and exercise, with only a small share pursuing reversal, creating a clear opening to convert aware consumers into first-time users.
