Never thought I would consider Botox but if it would get rid of my head pains they might be able to tempt me. Mine is not migraine however, I used to get those but very seldom anymore. Any cure I have ever tried worked for a while and then seemed to wear off.

Any way you use it, it’s still a toxin that you’re injecting into your body. If you want a breast lift, go see a plastic surgeon.

There’s not enough botox in the world to lift these suckers.

I envy you. I didn’t when I was 20, but I sure do at 40!

I skipped this article, but came back for a look after reading your comment, Lorraine. You are one smart, sassy, funny woman.

Botox instead of good posture? “Physicians inject a large dose of Botox in patient’s pectoral muscles, enough to cause the area to go numb. This helps the shoulders to relax backward and women to stand up straighter thereby lifting the chest and giving the appearance of a perkier bustline.” Ladies, you can obviously get the same effect by standing up straight (and that’s free!). What I want to know is whether botox in the prostate will make you know who stand up straighter too :)

Dear Sam: It may help who you know stand up but its useless anyway since you know who will not feel anything. Botox will paralyze the nerves in that area.

The thought of pumping botulism in my body is about as appealing as walking into a burning house—no way!

I would never put botox into my body for any reason other than to save my life.

I like the procedure with the man’s prostate and the 20 minute injection into same.

My daughter underwent botox injections in both her hands just five weeks ago for a case of severe hyperhidrosis. For at least ten years she has suffered from extreme sweating and the palms of her hands were the worse. In a matter of 60 to 90 seconds, she would have a puddle of sweat in her palms. It caused extreme anxiety in social situations, resulted in extra hand taping to take part in high school volleyball, and sometimes ruined school work because of the sweat dripping onto the papers she was working on. To watch television she would hold washcloths in her hands. She had about an 85% success rate with the injections. She said she will never do it again though. It was extremely painful.

I have an involuntary eyelid tic, and I investigated Botox injections for it. Unfortunately, there is a possibility that it would make the eyelid droop, so I opted against having the injections. The article doesn’t mention the possible side effects.
