Needles I Can Deal With
Needles make me queasy. I detest shots and giving blood is completely out of the question. That’s what the rest of you suckers are for. I’ll buy my own juice and cookies, thanks. I don’t need to see a blood bag hanging off my body. EW!
But, Botox?
Botox is totally worth shoving needles in my forehead. Don’t fret; I’m not the one shoving the needles into my head. My girl Laurie over at the Mountain Medical Medispa does that for me.
I tried Botox once last summer and ended up with a bruised forehead, but under the bruises it was so pretty and smooth. This time I decided to try a different clinic. After the kick ass microdermabrasion I decided to see if they could make me pretty. I was VERY pleased with results. There wasn’t a single bruise! I nearly kissed Laurie on the mouth I was so happy. And she didn’t just send me on my way, THEY FOLLOWED UP! I was thrilled with their customer service. I’m a sucker for someone who pampers me and pays attention to my every question, which they totally did.
I’m loving the Botox results. So much that I want to share, so my plan is to finish school, find an amazing job that pays me a million dollars a day to write and then I’m throwing a Botox party for my nearest and dearest friends, plus strangers on the Internet.
ATTENTION: DO NOT HOLD YOUR BREATH WAITING FOR THAT TO HAPPEN. The last thing I need is someone’s family suing me for killing their loved one.
If you’re interested in attending a Botox party before my rich and famous plan comes into play the spa is having their own Botox parties in Ogden and Salt Lake. I read on their flyer that they are serving snacks and doing free manicures. I’m a sucker for free food. I hope they have Girl Scout Cookies and vodka tonics. Just in case they don’t will you stick a flask in your purse for me? Oh, and can you drive me to and from Ogden while you’re at it? Awesome, thanks!

I want to know more. How much does it hurt? You can still move your face in all the appropriate ways?
I love considering myself a needle badass. I’ll unflinchingly take almost any shot, anywhere, anytime. But none has ever come near my face. Bravery in Ogden!
OMG. I want to try Botox so bad. I doubt they would do it on a pregnant woman, but I have some serious canyons going on in my forehead. And Ogden is NOT THAT FAR!!!
How often do they have the parties? I want to go to one.
Can we see some before and after shots?
I would to see a photo.
Suzanne and Jeni:
Just as soon as this cut on my face heals I’ll post some pictures. Note to self: never sleep in the same bed as a dog with freshly cut nails. Those bastards are sharp!
Will you please give away botox next? PLEEEEEEAAAASSSSEE?
I think that Ogden really is that far. Bah!
What’s up with America and botox? You may look good now, but I doubt you’ll be happy in ten years when your face looks like a melted plastic bag. and again! I should learn my lesson about eating and reading your website. I don’t know why those two things always happen at the same time. At least you’re happy. + self esteem is worth everything, so you go girl.. I think.
I just couldn’t resist the urge to say that maybe Bex shouldn’t read this website at all if it upsets her stomach so much! I also want to know how much it costs, cos I looked into it once (for medical reasons, as it happens), but it was WAY expensive over here.
Ugh, I hate needles, too! I have to warn phlebotomists before they stick me. I put up with so many other pains (including my current BAD hair) in the aim of being beautiful, I don’t know if I could handle that one though. Unless they put me out, first….
Ahhh Nicola. You failed to hear the love in my voice over top of my gag reflex. This website is like a roller coaster. You know, the kind of sick that is really fun and tastes like candyfloss? I can handle needles pretty well, unless they’re inserting/extracting something. I had a nightmare the other night that I swallowed a needle, and thus while reading about needles and eating. It freaked me out.
Girl, you are to young to be getting botox! Seriously!
You look good. I wouldn’t start messing with that.
Like the Botox & Vodka Tonic idea, but could we do Gin & Tonics too. My life has been empty since we weren’t allowed to bring wine to the book club parties at P.s house- oh wait, that was when I was kicked out!
