Unrefrigerated Undiluted Botox

One of my staff left out an undiluted bottle of Botox in the room, and it was not refrigerated for about 3 days. Is it still effective?

A: Botox Stability

I have found Botox to be very stable in the undiluted form and the diluted form if used with preserved saline.  However, because of FDA recommendations I do not inject Botox that has not been kept refrigerated.

How Can I Avoid Wrinkles Until After 40? I Am 26 Now.

I have very good skin for my age. I am very careful with sunscreen (spf 70+ with zinc because I'm allergic to regular sunscreen) and I try to wear hats and sunglasses. I do have a lot of freckles but I don't burn because I'm half Italian (southern). ANYWAY, I know that preventative Botox is big and so is retin A, but before I invest all this money over a long period of time, I want to know if it will really make a difference. Can you REALLY look 26 at 36 or is it all a scam?

A: Forehead Wrinkles - How to look 26 at 36!

The best way to maintain a youthful, natural and health look is to avoid the sun, keep well hydrated, use sunscreen daily with a zinc or titatinium dioxide in the base.  It is also important you do not smoke.  The rest is up to your heredity. 

Ultherapy which treats skin laxity and stiumlates collagen production is also an excellent way to maintain a youthful appearance once skin sag or wrinkles become visible.  Other viable options alone or in conjunction with Ultherapy are Botox injections ((which prevent muscle contraction) and injectable fillers.

Deep Lateral Lines Under Eyes- Other Options?

i had botox on my eyes,it cleared up the lines at the sides of my eyes,but the lines underneath my eyes,and wrinkles that run undre my eyes.and from the side of my eyes in straight lines down to my cheek bones r so bad,and i have been told they dnt do botox under the eyes,how can i clear up ths problem, i look so old and its making me unhappy!!

A: where botox fails

Botox is good for the lateral ines, but used underneath the eyeld can lead to drooping of the lower lid or ectropion. You may wish to consider lower eylid laser resurfacing or chemical peel which which help to tighten fine lines or wrinkles.  You may be a candidate for lower eyelid blepharoplasty  if you have too much excess skin.  A board certified plastic surgeon can help guide you through the options.

Nothing can or should get rid of the lines completely,  too much skin tightening and th lower lids can pull down, but a balance can usually be found.
