My daddy had Botox injections, but for a health problem. The major downside is that it causes minor paralysis in parts of your face. I heard recently that so many Hollywood stars have found that they can no longer smile or otherwise "emote" the way they would like, as a result of Botox. FWIW, my father could not control his saliva afterwards. I'm very uncomfortable with the thought of allowing live botulism in my body, though!

I don't know much about collagen. I've heard that it can harden, but I don't know anyone who's had it.

Has anyone tried that "1-2-3 Facelift"? Supposedly, you put a cream on your face, then pull it up as it you would in a facelift, and it stays there for up to 8 hours. I'm very interested in that - but I'm also saving for the real thing now, so I have the money when I need it!
