Botched Botox

Link to an article in Prevention magazine that I was reading while waiting at the grocery store. Normally I dismiss Prevention magazine as little more than pharmaceutical propaganda, but I thought this article was interesting. Actress Dana Delaney talks about how a Botox needle "hit a nerve and created a huge hematoma", basically killing one of the nerves and causing one of her eyes to droop (Not one of the things the doctor routinely mentions when they give out this stuff, I imagine.)

Years ago there was a guy in a church I attended who was a dermatologist, and while I thought the profession of being a skin doctor seemed like a decent medical profession, it turns out a majority of all he did was botox injections.
