Botox teenager: Botox cosmetic is a great option to help reduce facial wrinkles and improve skin appearance. Most plastic surgeons and dermatologists will not treat a teenager with Botox cosmetic. Basic skin care, including sun block and chemical peels, are generally the first step for younger patients.

Probably none: We could argue all day about whether or not a 16 year old girl needs a boob job or botox, but from a purely medical and physical point of view, the risks are about the same as they are for a 35 year old, ie not much. If she had breast trauma or cerebral palsy, then both options would be perfectly reasonable and probably very helpful.

Personally..: I think you are too young to be considering botox. Wait for breast augmentation until you are 19+.
