Breakfast n' Botox Parties? For Real?

Forget sitting in the doctor's office to get your Botox injection. Try relaxing at a resort and getting your procedure done as part of a "spa package" instead.

Introducing... "Botox and Lox", reported by women's fashion magazine Marie Claire (October 2007 issue): http://www.marieclaire.com/hair/beauty/products/breakfast-botox-beauty

Most of us already know that Botox is tapping the South Beach market pretty hard (that's a no-brainer if you've ever visited the breast-baring beach). But has this event crossed the line by tapping the hospitality industry? If you don't have time to read the article, here is a one-sentence synopsis of the event:

Patient visits the Sagamore Hotel in South Beach, FL for the first (and probably not last) "Botox and Lox" party and receives treatment over "bikini-tinis" and breakfast.

Here's a fun quote to chew on:

"We think Botox parties might become a fun alternative to bridal showers-or maybe divorce parties," says Neil Sazant, owner of the Sagamore Hotel.

Warning: Just in case you were interested in throwing a botex party in place of your bridal shower or divorce party, be prepared to inform your guests that they will have to pay a stiff fee of $750 or more to attend your soiree.

Let the festivities begin!
