    Botox

    Anyone used it before? I got a serious crease in my forehead and thought about getting it done. How much does it cost? How effective is it?

    This is a serious answer. Try preparation h first. It will tighten the skin.

    I thought Botox was only a temporary fix.... To reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles with filler not permanent... I could be wrong though....

    I think Cape is on to something. I have a friend who is a doctor and he says prep h will get rid of under eye darkness and circles if applied there.

    I'll tell you what will work wonders is that chit you put on your hair if you are balding mild to moderate. I have a tube in my bathroom I have never opened. Multiple brands, Toppix is the big one lately if you just want to look younger / more attractive.

    Old body builders use it on the stomach if the skin is loose before a show it works.

    You're right. It generally only last 3 to 6 months. It works by paralyzing the nerves that innervate the muscle causing the wrinkle or crease. Eventually new nerves grow to the muscle and you will need another application of botox.

    Interesting I honestly thought it worked similar to synthol (the material pushes out thus making the lips / face / skin plump and full and less wrinkled)

    But if you're really interested, do some basic online research before you go meet with a plastic surgeon or cosmetic dermatologist. You have options other than botox, such as hyaluronic acid (Restalyne, Juvederm), collagen, and a whole bunch of other skin fillers. This site might help you start your research and introduce you to some of your options:

    Not listed on that site is the option of having your own fat used as a filler. Here are a bunch of sites with more info on that:

    https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...rp.StURDd9sX9U

    If I knew more I would share with you. From what I've seen and heard, I think it's best to stay away from botox and skin/lip fillers bc for many it becomes an obsession and a slippery slope of where to stop. I've heard of cosmetic products that contain capsaicin that are supposedly very effective against wrinkles and cost around $20. Maybe a better place to start.

    It sounds like you're referring to skin fillers, such as collagen, hyaluronic acid, etc.

    To get good results you have to order it from Canada. In the US they took out the bio dyne because it worked to well and all the medels were using preparation H instead of over priced wri kle remover.

    Make sure you get the cream, not gel and with bio dyne
