A friend of mine does it. [Well, he's a dermatologist] & what he does is fills 20 or 23 gauge needles with 50miligrams of botox each [4 totaly], then he injects it into the surface of the skin. Before the precedure, to clarify where the problem is, they swap your underarm in iodine, then put cornstarch over it. Your sweat will turn black. [cool shit right? its like an at home experiment, haha.] They will put it most into problem areas, I'm guessing it hurts more because of the needle? But it hurts because of where nerves are placed. He has had it done & since I know him we just kind of talk while he's doing it. Some of them don't hurt AT ALL while others you're just like MOTHER SHIT FUoh its done. haha. hope I answered all your Q's. The pain lasts for the second that the needle is hitting the nerve. & How long does what last?
