no one wants me to get done...but I am thinking of trying it when I turn 27 in a few days?
Does it hurt?
Any bad experiences?

Too old??? No, it's not too old to get botox, but I'd say it's probably too young, especially if you don't have wrinkles. If you get botox, you'll have a frozen face where you can't hardly smile or laugh....that will make you look old.

Botox is used to make lines or wrinkles between the eye brows look better. It only lasts for a short time.
Botox comes from a kind of bacteria. The bacteria can make you very sick. But doctors have found that a chemical in Botox can also help treat some health problems. They have been using it safely for many years.
It is injected through the skin into the muscle. The Botox keeps the muscle from tightening. When the muscle can't tighten, the wrinkle doesn't show as much. Botox works for about four months. As the muscle returns to normal, you will see the wrinkle again.
If you are planning on trying Botox...
• Ask about how Botox could help or hurt you
• Make sure your doctor is trained in the use of Botox
• Make sure you get treatment in a doctor's office or clinic
• Emergency equipment should be on hand in case of a problem
• Do not use if you are pregnant or think you might be pregnant
• Do not use if you are breast feeding
• Tell your doctor if you are taking antibiotics
• Tell your doctor if you have any problems with nerves or muscles
Contacting a plastic surgeon or doctor is probably the best idea for advice. These sites have a lot of other helpful information…

It's not too old, but it is too young. There's no point in getting botox if you barely have any wrinkles.

It's to young, and pointless if you don't have wrinkles.
