The news media tend to overlook the fact that problems have only arisen when people "overdose", such as using 100 times the amount we usually inject for cosmetic purposes.

It also has to be noted that the people who had problems were afflicted with cerebral palsy and other conditions before trying Botox.

Cosmetic Botox, when used correctly in the usual doses (less than a bottle at a time), has an unparalleled record of safety over the course of 25 years.

I always advise anyone considering it to consult a dermatologist, and the more experience the doctor has with such procedures, the better. It translates to better and safer results for the clients.
