Who Qualifies for BOTOX Treatment?
Before the patient has the injections, they have a consultation with a trained member of our team. They will evaluate the patient’s lines and wrinkles and determine whether they are severe enough for BOTOX® treatment.
Though many people have been candidates for this treatment and have had good outcomes, there are some people who should not have it. These include women who are pregnant or nursing and people who are allergic to BOTOX® or any other product made from the purified protein solution. People who have a skin problem at the area where they want to be treated should wait until the problem clears up.
Other people who may not qualify for the treatments are people who have weakness in the muscles at the injection site. This is because BOTOX® works by causing the muscles beneath the wrinkle to relax. This causes the wrinkle to smooth out. The patient should not have unusually thick skin on their face, very deep scars like those caused by third degree burns or drooping eyelids. People whose faces are notably asymmetrical may also need to pass on BOTOX® treatments.
