Hello Interloper!

Through his pioneering research, Finzi has been able to alleviate many patients from their clinical depression, simply by injecting Botox into the ‘corrugator’ frown muscles. Many of the patients in initial trials didn’t even present with visible frown lines before treatment, thus removing the argument that they felt happier and less depressed post-treatment because they looked better.
The Face of Emotion is a fascinating and bold examination of the power facial expressions have over our interior moods and a dramatic departure from the neuroscience-based school of thought that views emotions solely as the result of neurotransmitters in the brain. Dr. Finzi challenges us to rethink the causes of unhappiness and offers an alternative treatment approach which could radically change the way we think about and treat depression in the future, as well as the emotional effect that cosmetic Botox treatments have on our everyday patients looking for anti-ageing solutions.
