Botox - challenge your age
Man's quest for eternal youth has taken him on journeys in various domains and fields of research. Botox is one of the developments towards this quest. Botox injections remove wrinkles - a woman's worst nightmare as she ages, leaving her with younger and fresher skin. Botox as such is not new; it has been used by ophthalmologists in the late 70s for surgery. However, its cosmetic use is just about a decade old; in the early 1990s the cosmetic use of Botox was approved.
From a rumor to a whisper amongst cosmetically correct women, it reached full lungpower through the media in 2001. It has been in the news ever since, with newer developments and research findings being published at regular intervals.
