subject: Botox Belle Of The Ball [print this page] Holidays are times for galas and parties and Botox can be a way to get ready for them. Everyone wants to look their best at holiday gatherings and just like Cinderella had a bit of help from her fairy godmother's magic wand, real life women can get a bit of help from injections of this wonder drug. The full name for it is Botulinum Toxin, but most of us know it by its trade name of Botox. In fact, this substance is so popular that it's become a household name just like Kleenex is to facial tissue. Here are some before-and-after examples of how a modern day Cinderella can get ready for holiday events with the help of her doc's syringe.
Before: Here is a portrait of a potential beauty before she decides to make an appointment with her plastic surgeon, dermatologist or aesthetician for injections of this close-to-magic substance.
- Wrinkles: Her face has crows' feet and laugh lines that make her look older than her true age. Every time she looks in the mirror at the creases, she cringes.
- Excessive underarm sweating: She doesn't even have to be nervous to have large perspiration rings under her armpits. A silky ball gown would become an unsightly, damp mess with her sweat problem.
- Nervous tics: This potential lovely has a few problems with nervous tics. Her eye twitches quite often and her body has some spastic tendencies. Not so great for making eye contact with princes or dancing to the holiday band.
- Overactive bladder: It's always crucial to find the bathrooms in a ballroom when you have an overactive bladder.
After: After a potential belle of the ball sees her clinician, she will be able to take care of her problematic issues. Here's how.
- Wrinkles: Injections of Botulinum Toxin will cause the muscle clenching around her facial creases to relax. What results is a smoother and more youthful look.
- Perspiration problem: Overactive sweat glands have ruined more than one party dress. Luckily, with a few injections of B.T., those glands will chill out for a bit. What results is dry underarms and a lovely woman in a silky gown.
- Tics and twitching: Botox has long been used to curtail musculature twitches. A few drops here and there and she'll have a steady gaze from her eyes and will moving around the dance floor as smoothly as her silk dress.
- Excessive bathroom trips: Doctors can inject this substance near the bladder's muscles in order to get them to calm down. This means fewer trips to the ladies' room and more time shaking her groove thing out on the floor.
With the help of Botox and the magic wand known in medical circles as a syringe, a modern day Cinderella with a few problems such as a wrinkled face, overzealous sweat glands in the armpit region, twitching muscles in eyes and other body parts and a bladder that just won't quit can relax and enjoy the party. She can arrive with a youthful facial appearance, dry underarms, calm muscles and no worries about where the bathroom is.
