<![CDATA[Botox less effective the more it is used]]>Women who regularly get Botox treatments seeking youth are becoming immune to the injection, even forming antibodies to it, a report said.


German researchers published a paper in the Journal of Neural Transmission, saying that one out of 200 Botox patients come to develop antibodies which lead to ineffective results.

More negative results were found among those who took a larger dose of injection than others due to medical reasons such as treating spasms or sweating.

Other scientists from British Medical Journal's online forum also found that repeated treatment with Botox \"triggers an immune response ... which might lead to non-responsiveness to treatment.\".....

janet88:
with botox, it lasts about 6 weeks. regular 'top up' is required. over time, those areas will be 'frozen'.


it's better to age gracefully in my opinion.

walking well and living a quality life is more important. orthopaedic surgeon is more important than plastic surgeon.
Haha~~ I think it depends on the doctor/beautician and your genetics too.

Agree in 10 years time what is the point of having a beautiful face when our health conditions will all be catching up 😞 !

In my case, I am not looking to having a beautiful face (how to when there isn't one in the first place 😂? ) when I reach the silver years.

It is more for to hv a pleasant look that is not sad looking, esp with lips that turn downwards which to me is totally unacceptable. 😉

I am interested to do it when I am older but scared. Maybe KSP will have a thread on cosmetic surgery by then and some of us can go together? :evil:

While watching kdrama, sometimes there is this commercial on Busan being a medical tourist interest.

The other day I heard over the radio that Lee Teng (one of Mediacorp TV artistes)admitted that he got a eye job done.

I don't believe you look fierce, Jennifer 🙂 I'm sure you've a kind and compassionate face in reality. No need for botox at all.

I'm 31 but my students tell me I'm old because I'm no longer in my 20s..
They only look at the numbers. Anyone older than 25 is considered old to them.
You've said it.. they are your students. totally Different generation.

Try talking to your friends or colleagues (imagine) and see if 25yo is consider old to them.
