I'm in my mid thirties. I'm looking rough because of health problems and difficulty using some skin care ( rosacea recently diagnosed), I want to have so e where to go.
That said, someone in my medical team also mentioned Botox for stress headaches recently and mentioned the 'side benifit' suggesting it might be a route worth trying to see whether some of my highly headaches can be relieved that way while they deal with the bigger ones.
Its interesting you mention headaches, my stress headaches have all but gone, I used to suffer from life destroying cluster headaches (I'm sure you understand if you also suffer) but since Botox they are greatly reduced, my practitioner said its from less frowning, when I stupidly try and test my Botox by forcing myself to try and frown I get a headache shortly after, I have stopped doing this now I'm used to the treatment (2 years so far). I still have hormonal migraines around totm but I used to have at least one a week and was on medication to treat them so although I have Botox for wrinkle treatment it has had other benefits, for me anyway. Aveeno products are fantastic for Rosacea, they have a special range.0 -

Thanks, yes, I use aveeno and its great, I veered of recently for something more expensive and less good over time:D. Wish they did something for ocular rosacea too.
I get pretty much every type of headache going,. I have a problem with my brain and headaches seem a silly thing to make a fuss about all things considered but my neurologist feels that reducing headaches and migraines would improve my quality of life. The pills tha help one sort of head ache or migraine lesser seem to worsen other sorts for me, its like the pain hAS to pop out somewhere:rotfl:
I'm probably more worried about wrinkles really..
