Courteney Cox says Botox injections stopped her from being able to move her face, and she's never having the cosmetic procedure again.[Agencies]

Courteney Cox was "miserable" after having Botox injections.

The former Friends star - who has a four-year-old daughter Coco with husband David Arquette - insists she wouldn’t have the cosmetic procedure again.

Courteney, 44, said: "Botox? I think it's fantastic and also horrible. I mean, they've come up with this stuff that can make you not look angry. But you have to use it sparingly.

"I went to this doctor once and he was like, 'Oh, let me do it just here and here and here.' And I was miserable. I mean, I'm an actor, I've got to be able to move my face.

"When people start messing with their foreheads and can't lift their eyebrows, that's weird. It's not that I haven't tried Botox - but I hated it."

Courteney also revealed David didn’t want her to have the injections because he loves the way she looks.

She added to America’s Marie Claire magazine: "David loves the ageing process. He thinks it's beautiful. It's weird, because I'm so in love with David right now.

"I'm starting to really appreciate how 'there' he is for me. But in any relationship, there are times that you're disconnected.

" You can see how relationships end if you don't work through it."
