THE CURE FOR “RESTING BITCH FACE”

A Red Bank, New Jersey woman named Hope Davis didn’t realize until her friends told her that she had “resting bitch face” – where, when your face relaxes, you have a natural scowl and look irritated. The 42-year-old realized that her job as a medical equipment salesperson depended on her coming across as a nice person. So, she had work done by Dr. David Shafer, a plastic surgeon in Midtown Manhattan. Dr. Shafer says he gets several requests for it each week. He says, “They may not always use the words ‘resting bitch face,’ but if I mention ‘RBF,’ they say, ‘exactly.’” Shafer’s technique is to add Botox to the jowl area to freeze the frown in its tracks. He claims that the worse the ‘bitch face,’ the more effective the Botox. The entire procedure takes about 10 to 20 minutes and costs between $500 and $5,000, depending on the number of shots. It typically lasts up to two years. Meanwhile, Hope Davis is extremely please with the results. “People have definitely complimented me saying, ‘Oh you look so pretty and cute today.’”

* “… for such a bitch.”
* So when we walk into a room, we won’t know who the bitches are? That’s not fair.
* It takes 20 minutes and costs $5,000? Totally fair.
* For reasons I won’t go into, I’m more familiar with “Active Bitch Face”.
