Women Love Botox Almost as Much as Paris

Believe it or not, nearly 40 percent of women over 30 would rather get Botox injections than spend a week in Paris.

A survey of 175 women asked about their attitudes toward aging and cosmetic procedures. The survey, conducted by Great Neck-based anti-aging medical center MesoBoutique, found that 80 percent of women ages 30 and up want to look younger, but only 36.5 percent would consider having a facelift, while 55 percent are interested in nonsurgical procedures such as Botox and microdermabrasion.

the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) reports that while surgical procedures have increased by 119 percent since 1997, nonsurgical procedures such as Botox, laser hair removal, hyaluronic acids, microdermabrasion and chemical peels, increased a whopping 726 percent.
