Pageant mom gives Botox to 8-year-old & defends her actions
>> ^nock:
Actually, it blocks nerve transmissions temporarily. As far as I know it does not permanently destroy neurons. Extensive use can lead to muscle atrophy as the muscles will not be utilized enough to maintain their bulk. It is approved for use with certain conditions causing muscle contractures and for cosmetic purposes. The mother should not be administering this medication as too much (I think the maximum allowed dose is 100 units) or improper (think arterial) injections can cause death from phrenic nerve paralysis.

For anyone who doesn't know how Botox works, it's a neurotoxin. That means it damages and eventually destroys neurons, effectively shutting off the muscles that they control.
Don't like the way your nose wrinkles when you smile? Turn off the muscles that trigger it.
Generally a pretty stupid thing to be using for something as trivial as wrinkles but shockingly stupid to be using on a kid who isn't old enough to understand the repercussions.
Neurotoxins, by definition, cause nerve damage. A single proper dose of Botox will not destroy neurons but repeated use over time can.
Botox is serious shit. The LD50 on the medical strain is 1ng. For comparison, black mamba venom is 250-320ng.
