Facial Paralysis for Fun & Profit!: Color Version
By the time you read this, the FDA may already
have approved Botox for cosmetic use. I'm not making this up--wealthy
women (and men) are paying thousands to have their facial muscles frozen
(which makes their wrinkles appear to disappear)... the treatment has to
be repeated every 3 months or so, or the face returns to its normal
expressive state. Movie directors complain that many actresses are now
incapable of... acting! But these are the same directors who only want to
hire young smoothfaced anorexic women in the first place... sigh. But in
case you ever wondered why news anchors have such an uncanny ability not
to smirk or frown even at the most hilarious or serious news items...
Botox is why!
