Procedure Description

I consent to the administration of botulinum toxin injections (commonly called Botox) for therapeutic or aesthetic purpose as discussed with the treating clinician. The injections involve multiple intramuscular or intradermal injections to targeted areas of the face or body to reduce muscle activity, smooth lines, or treat specified medical conditions.

Risks, Benefits, and Alternatives

The risks associated with botulinum toxin injections include, but are not limited to: pain at the injection site, bruising, swelling, redness, infection, headache, eyelid or brow droop (ptosis), asymmetry, dry eyes, excessive tearing, dysphagia or difficulty swallowing, muscle weakness distant from the injection site, allergic reactions, and rarely systemic effects requiring urgent care. Some adverse effects may be temporary; some may be prolonged or permanent. The likelihood of specific risks varies by injection site and individual medical history.

Expected benefits include reduction in dynamic lines, improvement in targeted movement-related symptoms, or symptomatic relief of specified medical condition. There is no guarantee of specific cosmetic outcome, and additional treatments may be necessary to achieve desired effect.

Alternatives to treatment include no treatment, topical or systemic medications, alternative injectable agents, surgical interventions, or other approved modalities appropriate to the condition being treated. I have had the opportunity to discuss alternatives with my clinician.
