8. Botox Can Work But Only Temporarily

Botox is quick but expensive! Botox is injected in the areas where wrinkles appear. It makes them disappear temporarily as one botox treatment usually lasts for 3 to 6 months.

On a longer run, one anyways can’t rely on a cosmetic procedure to keep the skin healthy as skin aging is a natural process. Additionally, Botox doesn’t work for all types of wrinkles. What will work always though is a diest full of nutrients which nourishes the skin deeply!
