Is Botox ruining cinema? | Dazed

Is Botox ruining cinema? | Dazed
Body horror in The Substance18 Images In her thought-provoking book Trophy Lives: On the Celebrity as an Art Object, Philippa Snow observes that “there's something self-abnegating in regards to the desire to be a really superstar, requiring a saint-like level of devotion to non-public transformation, sometimes extending to mutilation and self-sacrifice”. The “mutilation” that Snow is explicitly referring to is cosmetic surgery, and while we don’t have the statistics to showcase the variety of celebrities who've resorted to cosmetic surgery, we do know that various them get work done – from the celebrities who've different faces and hairlines every few months, to the incontrovertible fact that increasingly more of them have been transparent about their cosmetic work over the previous few...

Contained in the invite-only world of Botox parties and
I got my first invitation to a Botox party last month. A guerilla, invite-only gathering with an inventory of procedures, including menu items like underarm Botox for $350 (a purported sweat eliminator) or the complete facial works for $450. I had a fleeting consideration of shelling out the money only for the fun of it. Other than its ‘favours’ on the centre, it might be like several other party and promised a component of a ‘sisterhood’ camaraderie (this particular party was targeted at women only), alongside the share of muscle-paralysers. From midwestern Med Spas to the apartments of cool Brooklynites, Botox parties have proliferated within the age of social media. Often spread by word-of-mouth, they’re sold as a win-win scenario for...

Watch this film about botox within the larynx

Watch this film about botox within the larynx
Marianna Simnett’s The Needle & The Larynx premiered on Channel 4 on Friday, as a part of their Random Acts.

The audience sees Marianna sitting within the surgeon's chair as she gets injected with botox, a procedure normally reserved for men whose voices stay high after puberty. Narrated by the surgeon and Marianna, the conversations and the accompanying music, written by Marianna and Lucinda Chua, reflect the intensity of the procedure which is happening,...
