Lift and Separate

From the department of I’m not sure what to think:

Women can now get Botox for their breasts. According to this web site Top News (how appropriately named) and others, injections of Botox can be administered to the muscles around the breast that lift and firm the breasts.

According to reports, the injections don’t leave scars, require no recovery time, and thus far don’t have any side effects. A woman could have the procedure done and return to her regular routine the same day, assuming, of course, that her clothes still fit properly.

The cost is less expensive than surgery, $4,000 to $5,000 a breast, but the effects last only 9 to 12 months.

Articles don’t say if the effects wear off gradually or all at once.

Reminds me a bit of the character in Aldous Huxley’s novel Antic Hay who wore inflatable clothes in order to make himself more attractive.

I wonder if they might try it on the brain next.
