I really do not like lying so that shouldn't be a problem.
I have tried Botox, tommy. It worked, in that it took away many of the facial expressions I used to teach krav, but I don't know that it clearly removed pain.
I think tessera from way back when had it done and it worked for her. Not suire if she's still on it.
