I was told by a prominent dermatologist who's always in the news, that Botox can eradicate chest lines. Is it true?
Answer: Botox for chest lines I would have to agree with the other physicians here. The vast majority of these lines are due to solar elastosis and actinic damage. These are not commonly related to movement. Having said that, they may respond but the amount of Botox to be used for that large of an area would be considerable. I would seek other methods of treatment.

Answer: Not familiar with Botox for chest lines Hi Desperate, This use for Botox is not one we are familiar with. Like the other physicians that have commented here, we are betting that laser treatments would be a better option for lines in the chest. Good luck.

Answer: Botox works on dynamic wrinkles Botox works by paralyzing the underlying muscles which reduces dynamic wrinkles of the overlying skin. If your lines are there at rest, the Botox will have minimal effect. If the lines are there from superficial muscle action (contraction), then there will be some effect from the Botox. However, do not expect miracles.

Answer: Botox and chest lines
I have never heard of Botox being used for "chest lines?" I have also heard of some doctors promoting breast lifts with Botox too, but that doesn't work either, but it makes for good press!

Answer: Go to him If it sounds too good to be true it probably is. Botox is not intended for such a large area. Perhaps this is an issue with breast size. But if you think this sounds reasonable see the doctor, who's in the news, for a consultation.
