We all know Botox can be used to treat our facial wrinkles, like crow's feet, frown lines, and forehead wrinkles. But I bet you didn't know these three secret applications of Botox that can be super effective!

1. Turn a Frown Upside Down - If Botox is injected in a tiny amount under each corner of the mouth, it can reverse a permafrown. This works by weakening the depressor anguli oris muscle which pulls the corners of the mouth downward. When 2-3 units of Botox are injected into it, the muscles relax, and the corners lift up!

2. Flip Your Lip - When a couple units of Botox are injected into the upper lip it can cause the lip to "flip" outward, making it look subtly fuller. Check out the photo of my administrative assistant Megan before and after her Lip Flip. Our expert injectors do this treatment all the time.

3. Nefertiti Lift - This is the name given to a subtle lift you can get when Botox is injected into the platysmal bands of the neck and just below the jawline. These injections relax the neck muscles which pull downward, resulting in an uplifting of the lower face and neckline. Note: it's very subtle and can prevent you from making certain extreme facial expressions.

Interested in learning more surprising uses of Botox? There is a LOT more that Botox can do, and some Botox treatments being done that really shouldn't be (Scrotox?!?!). I cover all of this on my latest podcast, including:
- Botox to treat a gummy smile
- Traptox (aka Barbie Botox)
- Botox for excessive sweating
- Botox injections "down there"
- And a lot more!
