    • Quotes
      Botox - perhaps we could go there for just a minute. It's like going to the dentist only it's not your mouth that gets frozen. It's your forehead and if you're not completely in the hands of an experienced professional, one of your nostrils may also not budge for six or seven months. I am not saying that that's what happened to me, no. It was a friend of mine who I go to group therapy with.
