Better Than Botox?By Evelyn Grazini

What's NOT better than Botox?
Why you might want to reconsider getting a Botox injection, and what you should do instead.
Just a quick disclaimer here, I cannot speak from experience, because I have never had a Botox injection. The reason I've never had one is because I consider myself a fairly healthy person. I do not go to the doctor to get drugs unless absolutely necessary, and I don't take antibiotics either. In fact, when I found out that there were antibiotics in milk, I switched to Organic milk.
I just cannot fathom voluntarily putting poison into my face. Botox is a drug derived from Botulinum Toxin A. - A deadly poison produced by Clostridium Botulinum - the bacterium that causes botulism. What! I want to look good, but I don't want bacterium in my face!
I prefer to use special anti-aging creams in my search for relief of lines and wrinkles. With a wrinkle cream, I can put it all over my face if I want to; it won't paralyze my face in that particular area; and if it is not working, I can use something else. (Another thought about Botox - if your natural lines cannot move at all, do you think you might get more lines in other, not so natural areas of your face? - I'm pretty sure that happens!)
I have a friend who is into natural remedies. She puts a piece of tape on the lines between her eyes before she goes to bed at night, trying to diminish that wrinkle line most of us have grown to accept. This works in it's own small way, but I wouldn't want to go to bed with tape all over my face (I have lines between my eyes, beside my eyes, on my mouth, etc.) If I stopped smiling I could greatly reduce these lines, but I'm not going to do that either.
The problem with the tape is that it may help you stop frowning while you sleep, but it does not help rejuvenate the skin. You need to incorporate Peptides in an anti wrinkle cream to aid the skins healing process. These protein molecules, found naturally in the body, send out signals when damaged skin is in need of repair, helping your skin start its natural wrinkle reduction process.
You should use a product that contains at least three patented peptides that target both upper and lower layers of the skin, helping to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. One product that I use is OHT Peptide-3.
With OHT Peptide-3 you get the benefits of youthful looking smooth skin without the adverse serious side effects. You can use it in the privacy of your own home, and you will still be able to move your face when you're done.
I will choose the creams every time because, as I said before, I'm not going to stop smiling - it is what I do best!
