The Benefits of Botox

True confession: I'm a proud Botox user. Yes, I'm good about moisturizing my face every night and wear sunblock daily, but nothing gives results like Botox. It makes me look refreshed--like I finally caught up on that week's worth of sleep I've needed for the past five years. I've used it for several years now and get injections by my dermatologist about every 6 months. It's quick, easy and nearly painless.

If you have any specific questions about it, please let me know. The one warning I will give, which goes applies to injectibles like Restylane and Juvaderm as well: Make sure you go to a dermatologist or plastic surgeon for injections. Botox et al is powerful stuff, make sure you're trusting your face and health to the right person.

Help Botox Donate Money to Your Favorite Charity

Now, onto the reason I'm coming out of the closet about Botox today: Botox launched Expressions of Kindness Charitable campaign. You simply fill log onto ExpressKindnessCampaign.com and answer a short questionnaire about kindness. (It's fun stuff. An example of a question is "A Kind Person I Admire Is______________"). For every profile that's completed, Botox will donate $25 to one of three charities up to $250,000. The charities you can chose from are: Dress for Success, which helps disadvantaged women dress for a return to the workforce; Children's Action Network, which helps find homes for children in foster care, and Make It Right, which is helping to rebuild homes destroyed by Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans. (Make It Right was my personal choice.)

Shown is Didiayer Snyder of Extreme Makeover, who has used Botox since 2006 and supports Make it Right.
