Botox can cost around £400 for three 'areas' of your face.
AN oxygen facial is a high-pressure blast of oxygen that feeds serums containing vitamins, minerals and collagen to your skin. Your face will look smoother, plumper and younger.

It is said that the oxygen levels reaching your facial skin through the blood's circulation can be depleted by 70% by the time you are 30. And the less oxgyen in your skin, the more visible fine lines and wrinkles you will have.
Oxygen facials can start from around £45 a session.
