The article discusses the buzz around using breast milk as an alternative to Botox in anti-aging skincare, particularly gaining traction among beauty enthusiasts on social media. While some claim that breast milk can provide skin-tightening benefits akin to Botox, dermatologists, including Rita Linkner, clarify that breast milk lacks the biochemical properties necessary to achieve the same effects. Despite this, some individuals have reported positive results using breast milk for other skin conditions, prompting curiosity and continued experimentation in the beauty community.
"Yes, ladies, your milk is like Botox," new mom Regan Todderud, said while icing her face with a block of boob juice. "TikTok told me."
"There is no biochemical substitute for neuromodulators like Botox, which works at the level of the neuromuscular junction to prevent signaling of impulses that contract muscles," Linkner exclusively tells The Post.
"Breast milk and its components are not able to achieve this," said the specialist. "No skincare is able to achieve this."
"My hands haven't looked or felt this good in two years," cheered the millennial in a TikTok clip. "They're not cracked, they're not bleeding, they're not inflamed. I can bend them - women's bodies are so cool."
