Botox for Slim Legs?

Botox has a lot of great an novel uses, but this one just doesn't satisfy the risk-benefit equation. I know that there are all kinds of websites and medical practices peddling the idea of calf reduction with Botox, but that doesn't make it a good idea.
In order to achieve any meaningful reduction in calf size (medial head of the gastrocnemius, anyway) the dose of Botox really starts to get into the higher range. In addition, frequent applications of the toxin are required to induce atrophy. In both cases the risk of adverse events rises.
This procedure does seem very effective at reducing a patient's bank account, however. ;-)

This would likely require large doses and could potentially result in functional weakness.
The results would be temporary.
My experience with this technique is currently limited at this time, and therefore, I am not an advocate of this technique.
