Fabulous piece. And fascinating. You really hit all the angles of it. I’ve got a wife who uses it. In her late 60s. Looks fabulous. Natural. Easily takes 10 years off. My opinion, if it gives you a few more years of happiness before you go invisible, go for it. Also have a sister and partner in their late late 70s who refuse and object to any of this stuff on principle. Very few mirrors in their house. My guess is, if they weren’t living in their bubble and could get away with it, they would do anything in their power to look more youthful. So a complex subject for them. I know for a fact they care greatly about their appearance, primp with hair, clothes, make up sometimes, maybe even facial creams for all I know. But draw the line at anything clinical. I think personal happiness plays a big role.
I've seen it, in a way. As a kid, my pressure canning mother took the rings off when jars went into the pantry. I guess you can just buy hundreds of lids but only need about 14 rings. Anyway... a few times a jar would unseal from being jostled and break the seal, then sit back there and puff-up like popcorn. It made venison stew meat look like steamed shrimp, how it is split to pull the vein and white. Lid falls off and it is like opening a wet crypt. I'm genuinely afraid of it. I know it is every where, dormant in every scoop of soil, on your hands and face now, just waiting for a nice place without oxygen to thrive and make the biochemical equivalent of an H-bomb.
Very interesting. I was diagnosed with strabismus (also known as a lazy eye). I spoke with a doctor about getting Botox. He was appalled and stated that he would never inject poison into his patients.
As an elder millennial (1983), I tell my fellow millennials: *sunscreen is the preventative you want*. I am not anti-botox at all, and support anyone who wants to alter their appearance for their own happiness, but I promise there's something cheaper for our age bracket.

Wow! Never knew it. Very interesting.

A grad student of mine got botox for her migranes
Trigeminal nerve?
