A woman posted on Facebook asking for referrals for a dermatologist who does the perfect Botox in Nairobi? ‘‘Not looking to be completely frozen,” she said. Another asked for “a safe place to do Botox and fillers and dermatologists to completely avoid.”
A few years ago, such posts would have elicited little reaction because few women did cosmetic procedures and those who did shied away from saying that they spend money to enhance their looks or stop effects of ageing. However, these online questions had over 30 tips.
