According to Researchers 35.09 Is Age When Beauty Starts to Fade

My colleague, Dr. Houtan Chaboki, shared the link to an article in Wmagazine first published in Feb 2011 regarding how Japanese researchers determined 35.09 years is the exact tipping point when beauty starts to fade.

35.09 years is exactly 33 days after the 35th birthday.

Hmmmm... I'm not sure about the science here, especially given the researchers work for skincare company SK-II. And proffer their $250 Skin Signature Melting Rich Cream as a solution.

What do the masses think if corporate scientist lackeys are to be disbelieved? Well, QVC did a survey of over 2,000 men and women and found that age 31 is the tipping point. Doubters of this age may point out that this survey also is biased as QVC is not exactly an ivory tower institution.

Doctor Sentenced to 5+ Months Jail For Using Non-FDA Approved Botox on Patients

A Houston physician, Dr. Gayle Rothenburg, was sentenced to 5½ months in federal prison on April 16, 2010 for injecting patients with a Botox product not approved by the Food and Drug Administration for human use. Read the full story here.

She did this in order to save money at the expense of patient safety.

Please note that in our office, we use ONLY the brand-name BOTOX made by Allergan Corporation. In fact, we purchase our BOTOX directly from Allergan Corporation and not through a third party supplier.

Always ask your doctor where they get their BOTOX from and make sure you are happy with their answer (buyer beware)!
