Personally I am against the injections. Botox is the botulinum toxin. By far it is one of the most dangerous substances if in a uncontrolled setting. Basically what happens with a botox injection is the toxin infects surrounding cells and essentially renders them inactive. With no neural firing the result is a paralyzed, numb, and flawless section of skin. However, think about how many procedures are done...millions upon millions. Doctors know how dangerous this stuff is by itself, which is why the injection is done in such a low concentration and with extensive research regarding proper procedure. With that said, like any medical procedure there will be risk involved. Nothing is 100% safe.
There will be other treatments, other procedures...but a one time injection will do no harm other than the prick of the needle. You can give it a try and see how it goes. When the effect wears off the wrinkles will not spring back or anything but they may become slightly visible again due to your skin cells regaining consciousness (that's how I like to describe it lol).

Well, after doing some reading...I just don't think this is for me. Even it is just once. I think I'll stick to using creams and the like...After I read about how it was discovered, and what it really is....well, that was a huge turnoff. And I know, thousands of people get it all the time....but really, do we know the real long term affects of this stuff? 20, 30 years down the line? And with my luck, I'll be the one that has issues....

Botox is a great way to go, my mom gets it done and shes never been happier and she even gets it done underneath her arm pits and .. the benefit with botox is that, you don't sweat as much..(due to the reason she got it underneath her arms)

But there is an alternative method to botox, i believe it costs $1000 for the whole face.
