Aging gracefully isn’t easy, especially when you’re in the public eye and every little line gets relentless scrutiny. For many, Botox or similar neurotoxins have become a popular option, offering a subtle way to smooth wrinkles and maintain a youthful look.
While the side effects of this FDA-approved treatment are generally minor, real risks exist, as 45-year-old actress and Dancing With the Stars alum Amy Purdy recently shared.
Watch her powerful story in this July 15 video:

But her last rounds of low-dose injections triggered a severe immune reaction. The symptoms struck quickly: a loss of arm function, ringing in the ears, and electric shock sensations. She sought help at the Mayo Clinic and eventually learned her body could no longer tolerate the Botox.
As someone who spent 25 years as a licensed aesthetician, I’ve seen how rare responses like this can happen. While uncommon, occurring in less than 1% of patients, they serve as a poignant reminder of just how important it is to listen to your body.
Although aging may test us, with acceptance and positivity, it can also reveal our greatest strengths. Something Amy shows us with absolute beauty and grace.
