On April 15, 2002, the FDA approved Botox' to treat frown lines. Botox' was first approved in December 1989
to treat two specific eye muscle disorders, 'Blepharospasm' and 'Strabismus' and subsequently approved in
December 2000 to treat Cervical Dystonia, a neurological movement disorder that causes severe neck and
shoulder contractions.

To gain the approval for use with frown lines, a clinical study involving 405 mostly women over 50 with moderate
to severe frown lines were injected with Botox' cosmetic and after 30 days frown lines were evaluated. The frown lines were eliminated for approximately 120 days at which time re-injection was required. The FDA guidelines were
injections to incur no more frequently than once every three months and the lowest effective dose should be used.

Tanning Beds: History And Advice
Tanning beds were brought to North America by German scientist Friedrich Wolff in 1978 and rose to popularity in the mid-1980s .....The FDA approved Botox' as a prescription drug, thus, requiring medical supervision. The actual name
for Botox' cosmetic is Botulinum Toxin Type A; it's actually produced from the bacterium Clostridium Botulinum.

What actually occurs is an injectible form of sterile purified toxin, in a very small dose, is injected into the
affected muscles to block and release the chemical acetylcholine that would otherwise cause contraction in
the muscle. The toxin actually paralyzes the injected muscle.

Interestingly, the Botulinum Toxin has been known for centuries. As early as 1895, a professor (Emile Pierre van Ermengem of Ellezelles, Belgium) identified the original toxin from Bacterium Bacilus Botulinus. It was later renamed in the 1920's as Botulinum Toxin Type A, generic name Botox', which is a registered trademark. Dr. Herman Sommer, at the University of California San Francisco subsequently provided the data sufficient for future medical studies.
