I just don't get it

Gosh, I just don't understand! Today's society, people are wanting to live longer and look younger at any cost. I just read an article about Botox. A girl had a friend that had the underarm Botox injections to help with a perspiration problem. Because the treatment was so successful, the girl thought it would be the perfect solution to her problem - which was similar in nature, but different in location (super-sensitive spot where most women would outlaw needles). WHAT? They have got to be kidding! The Botox treatments work on any part of the body where there are sweat glands. Come on, that is really scary. I cannot even believe that people are willing to inject that stuff into their faces, let alone "other places"! Do you know where Botox came from? Botox is Botulinum toxin which can heal as well as harm. The bacterial toxin can paralyze and kill if consumed in contaminated food is now safely used, in a purified form, as a medicine to control certain conditions marked by involuntary muscle contractions. This is Botulism! This has become such a craze that people have "Botox parties". This is when a doctor comes to a gathering at someone's home and gives injections to the guests of the party. Ok, so they say it is safe. What do they know about this stuff as far as 20 years from now? How do they know your face (or other body part) won't just fall off or something? Besides, the effects of the injections only last temporarily (about 6 months). Then they have to do it all over again. Ouch, hurt, yuck! I just cannot believe that people are willing to first of all put a needle in their face (or some other body part), and secondly - pump your face full of toxins to get rid of lines or perspiration or for whatever reason. Just not my cup of tea, I can't fathom it.
