Usage
-Administering Botox into specific facial muscles effectively diminishes even the most persistent wrinkles, promoting smoother and more youthful skin.
BOTOX® also finds medical applications in addressing migraines, select eye conditions, excessive sweating, and temporomandibular disorder (TMJ).
Visible results typically emerge within 4-10 days and can endure for about 3-4 months, though individual responses may differ. Maintenance sessions, approximately 3-4 times annually, help sustain results over time.
Note: A preliminary consultation is essential before undergoing treatment.

Side Effects |
Side Effects
Since this medication is administered at the targeted area, most side effects manifest near the injection site. These could include redness, bruising, infection, and pain at the injection site. When this medication is used to relax muscles, there might be mild difficulty swallowing, dizziness, respiratory infections like cold or flu, pain, nausea, headache, and muscle weakness. There's a possibility of experiencing double vision, drooping or swollen eyelids, eye irritation, dry eyes, tearing, reduced blinking, and light sensitivity. Should any of these effects persist or worsen, promptly notify your doctor or pharmacist. For the management of migraines, potential side effects include headache, neck pain, and drooping eyelids. Similarly, when using the medication for excessive sweating, non-underarm sweating, respiratory infections, headache, fever, neck or back pain, and anxiety could occur. For overactive bladder treatment, you may experience urinary tract infections, burning/painful urination, fever, or difficulty urinating. Your doctor has prescribed this medication based on the greater benefits outweighing the risks. While severe allergic reactions are rare, seek immediate medical help if you notice symptoms like itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), rash, severe dizziness, or trouble breathing. This list of potential side effects is not complete. If you notice any unlisted effects, consult your doctor or pharmacist
