Beware the witch's chinJanuary ,

Patients seeking Botox injections to reduce wrinkles should beware of unscrupulous practitioners who use silicone instead of Botox, leaving patients with a "witch's chin", a Thai dermatologist has warned. Sagging at the chin Dr Prawit Sisalbutr was quoted by The Nation newspaper as saying some local clinics dupe their patients by promising cut-rate treatments to give a youthful appearance.

"Some illegal practitioners use silicone instead of Botox because it is cheaper," Prawit said. "The silicone will later cause the skin to look uneven and bumpy and in some cases will gather at the chin (creating a point) like a witch's chin."
