I want Botox. Only on my brow.
I dont know anyone who has had it - or at least was willing to talk about it. Im not sure how to go about finding someone good and most importantly, is it ok to do when breastfeeding?
yup - I have frown lines that I want gone! Too much grumping at my DS
I told DH that I want it for my next birthday (mid yr) but he says Im too young (im in my early 30`s) and he is worried I will look all plasticy like certain celebs.
Im not sure when I will wean but it might not happen before next pregnancy if we have another and that means I will have to wait a few more years!!!! And think how much worse the frown lines will be by then.
I am hoping to get lipo after I have had my babies and DH is happy about that. He probably dosent realise yet he is the one paying for it
I enquired about lipo a few years ago and they all said it was fine to get done inbetween pregnancys except for one who said 'wait till you have finished having babies', so I appreciated his honesty and am waiting. Might need a tummy tuck insted by then though
Ok, well I for one can't imagine ever having it done...
...until I found out it's a routine treatment for anal fissure issues these days !
But I still have trouble with the fact that it's a nerve poison...surely you could wait a few months until you're not BFing any more? In the grand span of your life, a few months is neither here nor there...?
Have been doing it for a few years.. so no deep lines in my brow.. or btwn my eyes.. and I have it done on the sides of my eyes - so hardly anything there either..
Go for it girlies.. ok not while pregnant or I agree not with b/f either methinks..
Lisa I think I've heard somewhere that it's good to have it when younger as a preventative measure rather than waiting till you're older and the lines are heavier. Dunno if it's true or not but sounds convincing
My expression is fine..ok maybe not as much as before.. but I make sure I have plenty..but not too much.. so u can still see surprise etc in my face. The Nurse or doc have to know what they are doing. Some of the nurses who are really into it - are better then many of the docs.
Also - will agree with Raven that the earlier the better. If you have distinct lines now without expression - you need to start before they get worse.. I started before I actually had deep lines so am pretty smooth except when I actually express a feeling.
I have had it heaps of times, as I worked in a practice that did it... I loved it, friends used to say "you look well", and I could smile away without crows feet. A reputable GP wont go overboard, it is the best invention ever.
Once I started ttc I stopped though, and now I am looking less fresh, I cant wait to have it again
OMG i was talking about this topic whilst at my hairdresser yesterday ...
I said to her i would love to be able to afford the luxury of botox and many other beauty procedures ... but having said that i said to her i would rather be of her young generation (i'm 43 and she is about 24) as by the time ' she ' is of an older age botox would have been around awhile to have learned of any possible side effects like i jokingly said to her "the face collasping" (?) ...
I worked with a guy that was early 30's and he had botox done on a regular basis ... his face was so shiny after his treatment i would joke & ask if he had sprayed Mr Sheen on his face ... He truely had NOT a wrinkle in sight ... and he looked great (never tired even when he lacked sleep) !!
