Botox, if done correctly, can provide remarkable results! The more experience a doctor has in Botox injections, the better!

jane as far as what will you say about botox~there really is nothing to say. At most you will probably get a tiny bruise you can cover easily till it fades. It is when you get fillers that it takes a bit m,ore time for your face to ’settle’ depending on what you get and where. When I had my ‘jowls’ lower jawline and chin injected with radiesse, I had bruising and a small amt of swelling. When I had my marionette lines filled with juvederm, the bruises were deeper and lasted an entire week, but I also take tylenol #3 daily so this may have contributed, it was not the product not the injector, she is tops and a seasoned dermatologist. Botox with a reputable professional, I always recommend dermatologists and prefer offices where the workers have also tried and use things on a regular basis, you should see just results over time-but seriuosly, do not go home and use a face scrub or mess with the site, leave it alone and follow all instructions to the letter. Good luck! The results will be softer lines or disappearance of lines, which will help you look rested.

Great blog! ihave had botox as well, once. And will be donig so again, I went to my dermatologist, since she is knowledgeable, is Asian and does have the same treatments herself with good results she is really the only one I will go to. I am not Asian, I am Norwegian, I go to her with any questions or skin problems, some of mine have been serious, she removed skin cancer I thought was a stubborn zit-I was worried about a different spot that turned out to be nothing, because of her knowledge and helpfulness she is my choice for skin care. I would never recommend going to someone who does not specialize in a medical way to get this done-my gynecologist now does only botox-I won’t go to him because he spent 20 plus years delivering babies and suddenly went to the botox on cash basis only as his only service-I want a skin specialist to help me care for my skin,not osmeone who sees this as good cash flow.

why do you have to work face muscles for 4 hrs after a Botox treatment?
why do you have to stay upright all the time and not bend for 4 after Botox treatment?
why you must not take Vitamin E, Aspirin or concume alcohol for 4 hrs after Botox treatment?
why you must not rub or massage the treated area for 24 hrs?
why you cant have a facial 24 hrs after Botox treatment ?
why you should not have a scalp massage or shampoo your hair for 24 hrs after the Botox treatment?
why you should not travel by airplane for 48hrs after Botox treatment?
why you should not have Micro-dermabration and Electrolysis for a week after a Botox treatment?
why you should not have a Laser treatment or any electrical beauty treatment for a week after a Botox treatment?

Love, love your blog–thanks for sharing! My family has horrible skin and horrible “aging” genes. I’m so lucky to be blessed with both… So, at 24 years of age, and after 2 rounds of accutane, when I asked my dermatologist about botox, he didn’t gasp or lecture. He actually told me I was a perfect candidate. I’d be using botox to treat the existing wrinkles I already did have, but more as a preventative for future wrinkles. I’m now turning 30 next month and have moved cross country from MI to the gorgeous state of CA for my husband’s career. My family is very conservative and I’ve never let them in on my little friend, botox. They actually think I’m aging well from sun exposure… Did I mention my family was conservative? Well, I’m very fair skinned, stay out of the sun, have had no other procedures, and never miss my 6 month date with my ole friend. Forget diamonds, botox is a girls’ new best friend!

To Diane (09-2008). I have had the same exact results as you regarding botox, but only after having an injection in my forehead. It’s been 6 months and again tonight, I am greeted with forehead pain (different than a headache). I probably won’t get another injection in my forehead (besides the intermittent pain, it seems to still be effective), but may continue on the crow’s feet. Everyone should also listen to the adage, “you get what you pay for”.
