I think that this is a matter to seriously consider. The side effects could be more grave than just weight gain...I've done some research. I've also included a site by Dr. Steve Xue, who is looking for 20 patients who are interested in participating in a study in Homeopathic medicine -- an alternative to Botox treatments. Good luck, and hope that this helps your decision.

Never hear of botox leading to weight gain. If so many a movie star would not be doing it

well, i wouldn't suggest it. it could paralyze a major vessel that is in the right hand. botox doesn't lead to obesity. and you should see a doctor, not asking ppl on the internet for something serious like this.
