<p>FDA news release Oct 15, 2010</p>
<p>"FDA approves Botox to treat chronic migraine</p>
<p>The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today approved Botox injection (onabotulinumtoxinA) to prevent headaches in adult patients with chronic migraine. Chronic migraine is defined as having a history of migraine and experiencing a headache on most days of the month."</p>
<p>Only reason I can think of for getting any botox injections…</p>
<p>A lot of Botoxers here in my area. I’d do it an instant if I had the cash. Sigh. It’s pricey. Make sure you get fresh stuff and someone who knows what s/he’s doing. If it isn’t done right it can cause some wrinkling and rumpling elsewhere. I’ve seen some bad botox jobs.</p>
<p>Missypie - I love your honesty!</p>
<p>I’ve heard the bangs or Botox theory for years, let’s just day I don’t look good in bangs! I told my doctor if I was angry with my husband I wanted him to know it before I opened my mouth, so no frozen face. I will say a little light Botox on my forehead and a little to raise my brows made me feel better about my appearance. I just did it 3 weeks ago, I went in for a chemical peel and after a very brief discussion switched to Botox. It was less expensive then I expected. Definitely not related to my ridiculously over priced car! I would do it again.</p>
<p>Has anyone tried the filler for the lips? I don’t think I’d consider Botox, but might go for the filler if it works to dispel some of the puckering.</p>
<p>Can’t do bangs - my hair’s so thin and fine I’d have to start the bangs at the back of my head to have something you could call bangs.</p>
<p>What about Botox for underarm sweating? Luckily that’s not for me, but a relative could benefit.</p>
<p>I just went to bangs last fall - should have done that ages ago. </p>
<p>And now, when I’m wearing my sunnies, everyone thinks I’m Anna Wintour.</p>
<p>“What about Botox for underarm sweating?”</p>
<p>Ramona, on RHONY, had that done.</p>
<p>Over30
My daughter (now 18) had underarm Botox every 6 months for about 3 years. It was a great thing till the insurance company decided not to cover it anymore.
She now uses Secret Clinical and it seems to be working well, no complaints about excessive sweating.</p>
<p>Horses sweat, men perspire and women glow. Or so my Grandma told me.</p>
<p>My problem is that botox is expensive and temporary. Dying your hair is temporary, but cheaper.</p>
<p>Botox is not permanent. So you have to keep doing it over and over. Why would you want to? </p>
<p>Of course we want to look our best and look young. But at some point you look ridiculous.</p>
<p>Growing old is natural. Women trying to look 20-39ish that are 45-55-ish look scary usually. They may have had surgery or, in some cases, botox.? </p>
<p>So I ask, why would you want to do this?</p>
