I’m not a vain type of person, and I’ve always thought I would age gracefully. But, what if I’m already in that situation, would I make the same decision? Nowadays, numerous individuals are undergoing plastic surgery. Even our most famous surgeon here in The Philippines, has made a great business for herself just on cosmetic surgery alone. Dr. Vicky Bello of course.

But, would you really go as far as going under the knife just for beauty sake? Don’t get me wrong, if you feel you need to these type of procedures, then by all means go for it. But for some individuals, they just need a little pick me up in the looks department. And the more common procedure that is being done now is Botox. I saw on television the other day, this mom who was shopping and next door to the shop she went in, and voila… a few minutes after she looked more radiant and beautiful and went to pick up her daughter from school.

It’s so commonplace now that they are having Botox parties in lieu of tupperware parties, how’s that for the sign of the times. But, I think that once you’re faced with wrinkles and all that stuff that comes with aging, I’m not sure you wouldn’t consider Botox. I know there’s a lot of Showbiz stars that have had Botox, but nowadays, they’re done so well, you can’t really tell.

In addition to using Botox for wrinkles in the forehead, eye brows and crows feet, you can use Botox for:

• Upper lip lines
• Downturn corners of lips
• Eyebrow lift
• “Bunny” nose lines
• Lower eyelid wrinkles
• Chin dimples
• Neck creases and wrinkles
• Migraine headaches
• Hyperhydrosis (sweating palms and arm pits)
• Sweaty foreheads

I’ve considered Botox very seriously. I have sweaty palms, in Waray, they call it “Pasmado”, but If you are aware of this situation, you’ll know it’s the most embarrasing situation that you can be in. Interviews, romantic settings, sports, etc. There are so many situations that call for dry hands. My girlfriend would always wonder why I never held her hands.

My ex-girlfriend the other month was searching for botox in Los Angeles, cause she thought she would probably try it out. It turns out that her mom got her a gift certificate for one of those procedures. Talk about Christmas Present. Wow. And all I’m probably going to get this Christmas is another card.
