No, I'd never have Botox. Botox comes from the fungus that grows in canned food.

Oh honey, try it, you'll like it. That stuff amazes me.

Yup, and they gave me one of those cold masks for afterwards. The redness is finally going away, thank god.

I'm a 'toxer from way back.

There is that little thing between my eyebrows, that crease thing. When it starts to reappear, off I go. Works good on the crows feet too. It makes you look more relaxed. Who wants to look like they're 40, raised a kid by themselves, worked their ass off and partied just a tad too much back in the day? I sure the hell don't. Besides, meeting with my clients and presenting a calm, pleasant appearance is part of my business. Listen to Mother Teresa (Heinz).

I can't go with chemical peels. I have to have dermabrasion. My acne scars are deep, so chemical peels won't work. Dermabrasion is where they literally take a "sander" to the top layers. I don't look forward to going to the dermatologist, because it requires you to take a few weeks off from work. I'm still debating on whether I really want to do this...

And, gldstwmn, you do look very nice. I could have sworn you weren't over 29!

Does dermabrasion have the same after effects (redness, splotchiness, irritation) as a chemical peel? I'm interested in this myself...

More power to ya, darling. I think the biggest thing that freaks me out is that it's the fungus from inside your canned foods.

And I am petrified of needles, too!!!!!!

It's mildly irritating but the results are worth it. I've done a combination where they dermabrase then peel.

It doesn't even hurt. It takes like one second. It's not fungus from canned foods silly. It's the same thing but that's not where they get it.

It's also extremely diluted.
Now collagen and fillers on the other hand-anytime anyone tells me that it requires a "block" for the pain it automatically reminds me of childbirth. And those needles are big. Can't do it.
