Complications and Side Effects of Botulinum Toxin for Cosmetic Use

Abstract

Botulinum toxin, the causal agent of botulism, is employed in therapeutic settings for a number of purposes. Botulinum toxin injections address aesthetic issues induced or worsened by muscle contraction by controlling local neurotransmission. Therapy has a transient impact; muscle recovery is generally clinically visible a few months following treatment. Improper injection placement or toxin diffusion to unintended locations following injection might result in severe muscular weakening, which can cause temporary deformity or functional problems. Some aesthetic flaws, such as eyelid ptosis and a perplexing brow, can be corrected with therapeutic procedures. In other circumstances, progress is contingent on the botulinum toxin's declining action over time
