Botox ??

Would anyone ever consider getting Botox? I was reading that people as young as 21 are starting now to get Botox injections to prevent future wrinkles. I may consider it at some point, but I just wish it wasn't so pricey.

I wish it was not pricy either if it was cheaper I would get it tomorrow. I think 21 is too young to get it, I will use it as a last result.

I think that's a bit too young too, but I guess they are wanting to make sure they never get wrinkles. But just imagine how much money they would be spending starting that young. At around $500 per injection every 6 months, it will add up to quite a bit.

Maybe if I'm around 40 I will consider Botox. Hopefully, by that time, all side-effects would have been addressed and it would become a normal beauty regiment.

No way!

I try to avoid needles whenever I can so I don't think I would get one voluntarily.

Maybe if they come up with another way to administer it I would give it a go.

Yeah, I don't too much like being poked with needles either. I don't see how people go through acupuncture.

In my view, having Botox injection is paying good money to inject poison slowly into your body system. Spend your money somewhere else and stop enriching the plastic surgeon

There must be some dangerous side effects to these injections, it is quite popular with the people into glamor world because their bodies are their biggest assets.They get paid millions for their bodies.It is better to stay away from botox.

Yup I hate needles too. But I don't think wrinkles are a bad thing I think like Eleanor Roosevelt, beautiful old people are works of art I think wrinkles are just a sign of how much wiser you have become!

I hear Botox injections only work for 3 months. What's the point of spending that much money if you are going to have to inject your face with that stuff up to 4 times a year! OUCH
