Botox is used in adults to prevent chronic migraine headaches or migraine attacks that occur on 15 or more days per month and that last for at least 4 hours.

To prepare the eye for BOTOX injection, it is recommended that several drops of a local anesthetic and an ocular decongestant be given several minutes prior to injection.

Botox is given by a healthcare provider as a series of tiny injections into the affected muscle(s) or skin.

The cosmetic benefits of this procedure were discovered by accident – the original reason Botox was injected into the masseter muscle was to relieve teeth grinding (also called bruxism) and jaw pain or tension. Continue reading

It is not known if RADIESSE® or RADIESSE® (+) is safe or effective in the lips, or in the area around the eyes.

Introduction of product into the vasculature may lead to embolization, occlusion of the vessels, ischemia, or infarction. Take extra care when injecting soft tissue fillers, for example inject the product slowly and apply the least amount of pressure necessary. Rare but serious adverse events associated with the intravascular injection of soft tissue fillers in the face have been reported and include temporary or permanent vision impairment, blindness, cerebral ischemia or cerebral hemorrhage, leading to stroke, skin necrosis, and damage to underlying facial structures.

In a double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study in adult patients with detrusor overactivity associated with a neurologic condition and restrictive lung disease of neuromuscular etiology [defined as FVC 50-80% of predicted value in patients with spinal cord injury between C5 and C8, or MS] the event rate in change of Forced Vital Capacity ≥15% or ≥20% was generally greater in patients treated with BOTOX than in patients treated with placebo (see Table 9).

BOTOX is indicated for the treatment of severe primary axillary hyperhidrosis that is inadequately managed with botox topical agents.
