People are getting Botox in incredibly x-rated area to change their bedroom experience

The human race has experimented a lot with Botox over the years, but injecting it into an x-rated area might well be a step too far.

Botox is traditionally used as both a cosmetic and medical treatment to help relax muscles, with nearly every celebrity in Hollywood probably dipping their toes into the Botox pool at one point or another in the last couple of decades.

You only need to look at the doctor who injected one half of her face with the neurotoxin to see how much of an impact it has, and I won't name the folks in showbiz who have magically appeared with a new fresh-faced look in recent years, but you probably know the ones I'm talking about.

Meanwhile, two twins underwent a 20-year experiment to see the difference in their faces after using Botox, and there's no denying that it does help to avoid the odd wrinkle or saggy skin.

But now, people who already share far too much on the internet have revealed that they've decided to get the treatment somewhere far away from their face, and I'm struggling to find the words in which to tell you that, yes, it's their anus.

Now, those innocent souls among you might be wondering exactly why someone would do this, and it turns out that it actually has a big benefit in the bedroom.

The procedure involves the botulinum toxin being injected into the anal sphincter, either under anaesthesia or with localised numbing agents.

And while some are undergoing the procedure for health reasons, others are simply ensuring that their pleasure doesn't turn into pain when having anal sex.

Lushful Aesthetics, a US-based clinic chain that has even coined the term 'Hole Tox' offers it as a signature procedure to ‘aid patients who suffer from recurring fissures and/or allow for easier dilation during penetrative anal sex (bottoming)'.

The company also states: "Botox for anal fissures from an aesthetic clinic can also help prevent future damage to the anal cavity and can result in a more enjoyable sexual experience."

Aesthetic doctor Dr Richard Devine explained that while the procedure could cost anywhere between £400 and £800, it is also a 'quick, minimally invasive procedure that can be performed in a clinic setting'.

He adds: "The toxin works by temporarily relaxing the muscle, which helps ease tension. This increases blood flow to the area, which can help with healing of anal fissures or sores."

So, if you are struggling with some issues in your downstairs region, and want to alleviate symptoms of constipation or haemorrhoids, then perhaps this could be an option to consider - but it's always best to speak to a GP before signing yourself up for a procedure as extreme as this.
