(Sources: Dr. Abadi, Dr. Citron, Dr. Denese, Dr. Linda Franks,Dr. David Leffell and Dr. Rod Rohrich, President of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons)
*** WHAT THE HECK IS IT?
Botoxis a purified form of the botulinum toxin type A ( a deadly strain of food poisoning) that temporarily paralyzes muscles when injected into the face. That paralysis is what smooths out fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes and forehead. Results last three to four months. The cost about us$400 a session.
*** IS BOTOX MEANT FOR CHICKS IN THEIR 20s?
Many Derms advise against it, because from ages 20 to 25, your skin has the highest concentation of elastin and collagen. In other words, why mess with your natural appearance when it's at its peak?
*** DOES IT PREVENT WRINKLES?
NO. Botox doesn't stop wrinkles from forming.
*** ANY LONG TERM EFFECTS?
DOC'S don't know because no studies on Botox's long term effects have been conducted yet. |
