Putin’s use of Botox has been widely reported by several media outlets, including the daily beast And Guardian, In one piece of 10 years, Guardian Spoke about the ongoing reports in Russia about the use of the product by Putin.

The report said the Russian president was criticized on Twitter with multiple hashtags on social media. Guardian said that rumors about Putin’s use of Botox began after his visit to Kyiv in October 2011 as Prime Minister of Russia, where he “saw a large blue and yellow mark around his eye”.
