People with botox are less happy

Well, well, well, maybe happy with your appearance, but your brain thinks differently. You see, your muscles send signals to your brain, thereby influencing your mood. By using botox, you ‘paralyze’ certain muscles, which means no cheerful smile signals are sent to your brain, and your brain thinks you are angry.

Even a fake smile can positively influence your mood. Scientific research showed that people who had to complete a stressful task, those who did it with a fake smile had a lower heart rate afterwards and felt better and happier. Even if the smile is fake, it still sends a real signal to your brain.

If you can't choose between wrinkles or a bad mood (I'm exaggerating, but that's allowed), there is of course the royal middle ground. You let botox be injected in the corners of your mouth. Then those corners curl up, you have no wrinkles and still a good mood. And a smooth face. And your surroundings are also happy because you are attractive (per), and when you have a smile on your face, it turns out that the person opposite you also gets a better mood. Soooo.

Nice, happy day! By the way, here are five more free things that make you happy.
