An aesthetics doctor in California made a bold educational move by using herself as a \u201clab rat\u201d to demonstrate the paralyzing effects of blasting botox into your face.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Botox, known medically as a neurotoxic protein, does much more than fight wrinkles \u2013 it blocks the nerve signals to muscles, preventing them from contracting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Typically, the results of the prescription drug, botulinum toxin, is smoother, more youthful-looking skin \u2013 temporary effects that last three to six months, demanding regular maintenance for anyone chasing that\u00a0ageless\u00a0glow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rather than just telling people about Botox\u2019s capabilities, Dr. Bita Farrell, a world-renowned aesthetic doctor and clinical professor at UCLA, offers her followers \u2013 240,000 on Instagram and another 185,000 on Facebook \u2013 visually stunning demonstrations, all \u201cfor the sake of science.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Relaxed and stiff<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Two weeks before she posted her viral social media clip, the doctor injected only the lower face muscles in the right side of her face to show people the real-life effects of Botox injections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Explaining her Botox experiment in the caption of the clip, Dr Farrell writes: \u201cMuscles of the face either pull up or pull down. When the muscles that pull the lower face down (platysma and DAO) are injected and relaxed with a Neuromodulator such as Botox, the muscle that pulls the mid face up (zygomaticus or cheek muscle) dominates and pulls the face up!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis can help reduce the appearance of marionette lines, jowls, frown (rbf [resting b**** face], or sad face), and the nasolabial folds. It also lifts the neck and can sharpen the jawline and make the cheeks appear a bit fuller and more lifted.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She adds that results last about three to four months, and \u201cany of the FDA approved Neuromodulators can be used.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jaw-dropping lift<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the jaw-dropping reveal clip, the board-certified physician drew a line down the center of her face and shared the results with her social media followers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAnd now for you, two weeks later, I present my results as I try and contract my lower face muscles watch this,\u201d Farrell said in the clip where she\u2019s seen struggling to get movement out of the treated half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou can see that the platysma muscle on this [left] side is really contracting and pulling my jawline down, and so is my DAO, pulling the corner of my mouth down,\u201d said Dr. Farrell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m really trying to pull this side!\u201d she exclaimed in the clip, straining to move the injected muscles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pointing at the side of her face that she treated, she continues, \u201cSee that this cheek rides a bit higher, this nasal labial fold seems softer and so does my shadow at the marionette on this side.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNow I better go inject the other side to even things out!\u201d she joked at the end of the video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Limited movement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the viral video, the difference between Dr. Farrell\u2019s two facial halves couldn\u2019t have been more obvious. On the untreated (left) side, natural expressions played freely across her features. On the Botox-treated (right) side, however, movement was dramatically reduced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond the movement \u2013 or lack thereof \u2013 the Botoxed side of her face revealed subtler enhancements: her cheek appeared slightly lifted, the nasolabial fold (the line from the nose to the mouth) softened, and the shadows around the marionette lines were less pronounced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By limiting Botox to one side, she created an easy-to-understand side-by-side comparison that made it crystal clear just how powerfully Botox can reshape facial dynamics \u2013 without needing a 10-page study to explain it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What people say<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The comments flooded in almost immediately, with viewers praising the experiment\u2019s clarity and marveling at the visible results. In a world obsessed with youth and beauty, seeing Botox\u2019s real effects this transparently was a refreshing \u2013 and mesmerizing \u2013 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFor the same sake \u2013 I will try that too, just on both sides,\u201d shares one online user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A second writes, \u201cThis is an amazing demonstration of the effects of Botox. It really is amazing! Thanks for doing this. I am actually shocked to see how big of a difference it makes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Others, however, pointed out that the untreated side of her face looked \u201cbetter.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s funny because I think the side you didn\u2019t inject looks better\u2026Younger! You have less under eye wrinkles on your left side,\u201d pens one user, while another asks, \u201cSo, at one side she looks paralyzed. is that good?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And then there were the critics who offered their harsh opinions on Dr. Farrell\u2019s self-experimentation: \u201cAfter so many years of study and effort, what drives a doctor to masquerade as a clown to gain visibility? This trend is mortifying.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
