Do you have revolting feet?

Starbucks, McDonalds, the credit crunch. Most things in the UK have derived from America. And now America has introduced something uncanny, something which could be as popular as breast enlargement, something that can reduce the number of ugly feet that trample over Britain today- introducing- the foot Botox.

A chemical used to reduce visible wrinkles is now being used to repair Britain’s overworked feet.

Little women (or men) may like to hear that the damaged tissue on the balls of the feet often caused by high heels can now be revamped.

The condition, known as “stilettotarsal,” can be cured through a series of Botox injections where females are injected in the balls with a chemical designed to fight wrinkles.

Doctors believe that the condition will worsen if the ‘sufferer’ continues to wear high heels very often.

According to the Telegraph, a study found that nearly a half of women in Liverpool and Manchester opted to wear high heels “all week long”.

Patient coordinator at a Merseyside clinic told the Telegraph that the “foot filler” could be as popular as breast enlargements or facelifts in the future.

She said: "The balls of the feet take a lot of pounding in high heels but some women refuse to give up them up."

"They are an integral part of a woman's outfit and so women put up with the pain. But now they see they can do something about it by opting to have the extra padding."

The popularity of the procedure is growing in the US and, like usual, is catching on in the UK too.

The clinic had revealed that it had seen an increase of 20 per cent in patients in their 40s who were yearning for the treatment.

Today’s shoe fashion consists of many pointy-toed high-heels. Despite being annoyingly and painfully uncomfortable, females are offered the advantages of all colours and styles, for longer and sexier looking legs, as well as producing an illusion of a sexier posture.

Yet many women tend to ignore the negative impacts that such items may have.

Regardless of how it all looks on the outside, many fashion slaves are left with nothing but hideous looking feet.

According to foothealthcare.com, women who decide to proceed with foot surgery are likely to experience worse effects in the future.

In some cases, the blood supply can be disturbed causing the blood flow to the toe to be cut off resulting in the loss of a toe. Now how sexy is that?
