Did you guys shop around for the best prices in your area for this or did you go to someone you were working with already?
I think I might start pricing this out!

First time for me was a referral, which I was very happy with.. Had to have two procedures done (lift and aug.), typically those two procedures are very expensive.. I was lucky enough to have both done for $5,000.. The "Fraxel Laser" was recommended to me by my plastic surgeon, who refused to do a tummy tuck on me because he believed I could get results by continuing to train hard like I was.. Glad I listened, my skin got tighter and I was left with a little bit of loose skin and stretch marks, and over 90% of it was removed with the laser treatments!

I do Botox on myself and on my wife. I've also used dermal fillers on myself. I like the results of both however if I were to pay what it costs at the Dr office to have them done I think I would not feel either procedure was worth the money.
Botox is easy to do on yourself but the dermal fillers are more difficult and more uncomfortable. Dermal fillers are more of an art form and it is hard to focus on the art of it all when you have a 23g needle in you face Botox is very easy if you stick to the 3 main areas of forehead, glabellar lines, and crows feet. If you try some of the more advanced things like a brow lift then you run the risk of messing up. If you do mess up at least you can take comfort that it isn't permanent.

I bought a Botox training video that teaches you how to do most procedures. The video shows you how to do it in some areas that I would recommend not trying at all eg lower eye lid. The video was $175 so it cost more then the Botox. The Botox I get, which is generic and comes from China, costs less then $1 per unit. Try finding Botox at any doctor's office for that price.
If you have any questions either post them or PM me.

So what do you find too risky? Is it that you are afraid that what you might purchase would not be Botox or that you might mess up injecting it or both?
Others have said to me that they find it too risky and yet these same people are more then willing to inject anabolics from UG labs and peptides from unknown origins. Personally I find these risks to be equal. The risks you are running are the same for all of these products and those risks are unknown product, purity and contamination. Overall I have found that people just seem to downplay the risks of UG anabolics and peptides and magnify the risks of Botox when in reality the risks are about the same. In the end it really comes down to trusting your source.
If someone is worried that the might mess up then I am inclined to believe they are probably right. It is easy to inject Botox but if someone truly believes they are going to mess up then they probably have reason for that and probably will. The good thing about Botox is that it is not permanent, however nobody wants to potentially look weird for 3 months either. Though I must say you'd need to be very skilled at messing up to do something wrong while doing your forehead. That area is really hard to mess up. Glabellar line are also hard to mess up but run more risk then forehead. Crows feet are also easy if you don't try to get aggressive but do run more risk then the prior two areas. Any areas other then those 3 you run a greater risk of messing up.
Just to be clear I am not trying to convince anyone to do anything they are uncomfortable with or that is illegal. Every individual should determine what level of risk they find acceptable for themself.

Has anyone seen the stuff you inject that is suppose to reduce fat cells and help you get leaner? There is a place by me offering it.
