“it's important to realize that this only works if you don't have loose skin in that area if you've got loose skin in combination with the loose muscle then the botox isn't going to be all that effective but if your skin is pretty tight you just have these muscle bands that are bothering you then botox can definitely be worth a try”
Hyram
✕Nay
“Botox is literally an injection that completely removes all the wrinkles that you see it really doesn't get more effective than that and I promise you a banana peel is just nowhere even close”
Doctorly
✓Yay
“it's actually the only thing that it does is prevent things because it doesn't treat wrinkles once they've formed they can soften wrinkles over time by stopping the muscle contraction but it's actually best used to prevent lines from forming before they've formed than they are at eliminating lines once they've already formed”

“The other thing that people surprisingly find to work for reducing oiliness in the scalp is actually Botox. you know, it's pursued for reducing sweat. Um, and so oftent times in the scalp, right? So, they get a reduction in sweat, but it also seems to have some effect on sebum production and oiliness as well, likely related to um the signaling at the level of the follicle.”

“now in today's world we do have Botox and Botox is great if you want to prevent wrinkles because Botox paralyzes the muscle it's botulinum toxin and it stops your muscles from moving and if you can't raise your forehead you can't get forehead wrinkles as easily now the thing about it is that depending on who your Botox injector is or your dysport injector or your xeomin injector is they can give you a Spock brow that brow that goes doink and it just kind of looks like today's version of the overly tweezed tadpole eyebrows of the 2000s”

“the upside is that this can often last up to 6 months in patients typically when we do Botox in the face to help relax the wrinkles they're only getting about 3 months of use out of that but it does seem to last longer in the armpits”
Dr. Shereene Idriss
~Mixed
“i no joke had a deep deep deep deep built in line on my forehead um in my late 20s during residency i started doing botox only because we had to practice on one another but for me at 29 or 30 when i had that deep line starting botox once a year is what i used to do at most actually helped alleviate me from doing that movement over and over again and it eventually disappeared”
James Welsh
~Mixed
“I did get BOTOX when I started to notice that my natural face is like a frown I was doing this a lot so I was getting like these you can see them here these like little lines here and when I laugh I literally laugh like this so I did get BOTOX when I noticed that my everyday Expressions were kind of exacerbating those fine lines”
Mixed Makeup
✓Yay
“Botox, any kind of the neurotoxin injections, great gateway. Like it's it's amazing to just get a little refresh because I think a lot of the time, especially if you're like a new mom, you look tired and so, you know, your tox injections can be great because you don't look so angry. You don't look so tired.”

Dr. Sam Ellis

“probably one of the easiest things you can do is something called a Botox brow lift with a Botox brow lift we are essentially injecting the muscles that normally pull the Brows down so the ones that sit between the eyes and around the tail of the brow and when we release or relax those the Brows are able to float up a little bit”
Lab Muffin Beauty Science
~Mixed
“there are also some newer treatments that are promising for reducing oil like botox and some laser and light treatments but they're pretty expensive and the evidence behind their effectiveness just isn't super convincing yet”

“Botox and fillers, you guys, these have real side effects. I've gotten Botox. I've never gotten fillers, but I've gotten Botox twice in my life in my 20s... each time I got the post Botox headache, which is actually very common, but mine just lingered and it made my face feel weird.”
Dr. Daniel Sugai
~Mixed
“if the skin quality is not good say the paper is very wrinkled and you crumpled it up over time doesn't matter if you take away muscle movement say if we do Botox and we take away the muscle movement that causes wrinkles that's called Dynamic red where we make a frown or we lift up our forehead and we get wrinkles with expression if we take away that muscle movement and we still have wrinkles at rest because the quality is bad from Sun exposure over time then Botox I tell patients straight up like I don't think you're a good candidate for Botox you have to look at the Integrity”
Gothamista

Dr. Jenny Liu
✓Yay
“for Botox how Botox works is we're injecting the botulinum toxin locally into your muscle so because we're using small amounts and they're supposed to be localized otherwise they wouldn't work right so in theory it should not travel into your blood to get into your breast milk to affect breast milk”
Dr. Mamina
~Mixed
“sometimes people can get really prominent bands in their neck and like injecting a little Botox GameChanger it can completely change the shape of the neck that's kind of an underrated procedure I think but once again you need to get evaluated because not everyone's a candidate”

“We use this quite a bit actually It alleviates the pain I will often mix lidocaine numbing medication with a steroid So it provides immediate relief from the lidocaine but the steroid in that injection also provides somewhat of a longerlasting relief from pain and swelling because it helps decrease the inflammation underneath”
Tea with MD

“My approach now when I get BOTOX is that I just want it to look natural that's my approach when I get BOTOX for myself or if I give it to patients I want it to look natural because I want people to still be able to move the muscles of their face and be able to have expressions”

“The other thing that they did was skin Botox. I don't know I don't see that happening here a lot, but skin talks is like not going into the muscles, very very very superficial. Minute amounts of Botox that they put into the skin at the same time that they do the Rejuran. And what that does is it literally shrinks your pores to nothing.”
