Title: Botox = No more pinching?
Post by: Bolognianips on March 23, 2007, 01:38:11 PM

So, If I'm correct in reading, that nipples harden do to a contraction of tiny muscles around your areola, and that Botox functionally paralizes muscle...  Wouldnt it be possible to recive botox injections around your nipples while they are firm?

Anybody have any idea?

That would produce the opposite effect bro… They would never harden..

Botox poisons the nerves, the muscle under the skin of the areola will stay relaxed and not contract. This would permit the deformity to push through giving you Permanent Puffy Nipples (http://www.plasticsurgery4u.com/puffy_nipples/index.html) which is typically not the result my patients are asking for.

Hope this helps,
