Why should I be careful with Botox cosmetic treatments?

  Botulinum toxin is an endotoxin secreted by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum and is therefore also known as Botulinum endotoxin. After nearly 30 years of clinical development and application, Botox injection treatment has also become the most popular cosmetic item in the world approved by the FDA! It has a very obvious effect on facial wrinkle removal and bite hypertrophy! Most people tolerate Botox treatment well, but there are some people who cannot use Botox: including pregnant and lactating women; patients with myasthenia gravis, and patients with multiple sclerosis. Although Botox injections are a type of micropigmentation compared to other cosmetic procedures, i.e., less invasive, less time-consuming, and faster recovery. For example, if Botox is injected around the eyebrows, if the injection site exceeds the “safety zone”, it is likely to cause drooping eyelids, bags under the eyes, etc., and if Botox is injected into the important respiratory muscles, it may cause respiratory difficulties and even endanger lives.  In addition, because Botox is highly toxic (1 gram of Botox is enough to kill 1 million people). Botox is a strictly controlled drug not only in China, but also in any other countries, and it is absolutely not allowed to be purchased and used by non-medical institutions, and it is not allowed to be used by non-medical personnel for Botox-related beauty or treatment. So if you see Botox treatment items in non-medical institutions (such as beauty salons, hair salons or networks, individuals), the source and safety of the drug is definitely a big issue, so don’t take any chances!
