Skin Care Review: Botox

by Alyson

Rating
Good

Benefits
Botox treatments are great for temporarily erasing wrinkles around the eyes.

Drawbacks
The injections only last for about 3 months.

Details
I have been getting Botox treatments for crow's feet around the eye area on and off for about 7 years. I am 38 years old and have fair skin but grew up spending too much time in the sun, so therefore I have ended up with some lines around my eyes. Most people tell me that I have very nice skin but I am very self-conscious because of the wrinkles around my eyes when I smile. So I started getting Botox when I was working for an ophthalmologist. It's great for the wrinkles at the sides of the eyes. The only drawbacks are that it only lasts about 3 months. Some people claim that the longer you get the treatments the longer you can go in-between, however, I found that not to be so with me. You also are not able to have the treatments if you get pregnant. All in all, I felt they worked well for me.

Conclusions
Botox Cosmetic is a great, temporary, wrinkle-eraser.

Price (paid by reviewer)
$400 per treatment

Where to find it
Ophthalmologist's office
