Tell me what you know about botox..

what do i know about Botox, i have known children with celebral palsy, who get 8 injections in each calve muscle, every six months, to enable them to walk/move a bit better - relaxes their overly stiff muscles. After some time, it stops having an effect, so they stop that treatment and try something else.

Spot on Gigi- its original purpose was to release muscle contractures.
It has developed cosmetically now too. I would love to be able to afford it, but scared I might have an adverse reaction or something like that.

It does hurt but not as much as waxing and it's over pretty quickly.
