		<description>You know, I&#039;ve been scared to use Botox and have used Freeze 24/7. It&#039;s a topical cream that I dot on my face in the morning, on the crows feet by my eyes, between my eyelids and on my nose (which I tend to wrinkle up) and I&#039;ve had great results. Enough that I decided not to have the Botox injections. Food for thought...</description>

		<description>Thanks for all this info.  I also believe the negative hype is worse than the product itself.  This seems to happen all the time.  
As for the Galvanic Spa with ageLOC gels, I have one and used one for 6 months - did NOT remove any wrinkles!!! I concentrated on my wrinkles and nothing went away.  Another waste of money.  I finally went for Botox at 1/2 the cost of the Spa and this works and lasts 3 - 4 months.  A no-brainer!</description>

		<description>Josi, your answer is best of all, since it&#039;s very factual, scientific, as well as containing much common sense!  Brenda, though I enjoyed reading everything else you said, I do not agree that most scientific therories are &quot;crap&quot; or untrue - rather, it&#039;s how the media presents their findings to us, or how we misinterpret the results.  Thanks, Josi, for your concise and thought-provoking info which should settle this debate.  I&#039;m currently on oral medications for headaches proven to be safe, yet I know how much these drugs significantly affect my memory.  Many medications can pass through the blood-brain barrier into the Central Nervous System, but no one seems too worried about such drugs (though maybe they should), and we all know alcohol kills our (mostly irreplaceable) brain cells.  Science is constantly changing its findings, only because it constantly self-corrects itself; when new evidence arises that contradicts old theories, the old theories must then be discarded to make way for the new facts.  Science must admit it was wrong.  So, to feel perfectly safe about using anything may be an impossibility.  Botox, though apparently safe, has not been on the market long enough to know everything about it.  One has to go with the facts as they are today - tomorrow any kind of knowledge could change.  One must measure the ratio of benefit to the risks; if Botox helps severe and debilitating headaches, I say go for it.  It&#039;s not just Botox that would cause side effects.  Josi is right.</description>
