Before Your Botox® Injection

With a medical examination, only a qualified doctor can determine if BOTOX® is the right treatment for you. Before taking it, tell your doctor if any of the following conditions applies or have applied to you:

have swallowing, bleeding or breathing (asthma, emphysema) issues

have had facial surgery, for cosmetic or therapeutic purposes

plan to have surgery

are breastfeeding a baby or plan to in the near future

are pregnant or planning to become pregnant in the near future

have noticed a change in the normal appearance of your face for a known or unknown reason

have any diseases that affect your nerves and muscles (Lambert-Eaton syndrome, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, myasthenia gravis)

are allergic to botulinum toxin or any other ingredient in BOTOX®

had an adverse reaction after receiving a BOTOX® treatment in the past

have facial muscle weakness (trouble raising your eyebrows, droopy eyelids)

have received other botulinum toxin injections (Dysport or Myobloc) in the last 4 months

In addition, you should also tell your doctor about any medications, vitamins, herbs or supplements you are taking. Certain medicines can negatively interact with BOTOX® and lead to severe side effects. During your initial consultation, please bring a list of medications you take so that they can be reviewed.

Your safety is our primary concern. BOTOX® is not suitable for everyone and for this reason, it is crucial that you be honest during your consultation to protect your safety.
