One of the issues that causes some people to pause when considering Botox treatments is concerns over safety. Even if you are convinced that Botox would be the right treatment for what you’d like to address, you might be concerned about your safety or any side effects that might arise.
We’d like to use this post to put some of those concerns to rest and help you understand just how safe Botox is when administered by a trained professional. Of course, if you get your Botox near Lewisburg treatments at Union Dental Health, you’ll be in the capable hands of such a professional – Kristen Snyder, RN/Aesthetic Nurse – and there will be nothing to worry about.
Tested and Proven as Safe
Botox has been in use for many years and has been approved by the FDA for the various ways it is used. The product itself is known to be safe, and the way it is administered means there is very little risk in the procedure. This is a minimally-invasive process and the Botox is injected just slightly under the surface of the skin. As compared to many other types of procedures, Botox is extremely safe and comes with very little risk.
Minimal Side Effects Expected
For many people, there will be no side effects at all when receiving Botox treatments. However, if you do have some side effects, they should be minimal and aren’t expected to last long. Those effects could include pain or swelling at the injection site, a headache, watery eyes, or crooked eyebrows. Possible side effects will depend on where the injection was administered and what it was intended to treat.
If you have any symptoms that seem more significant than they should be, or if you are concerned about how you feel in the aftermath of a Botox injection, always contact a healthcare provider immediately.
