Hello Interloper!

Side effects to neck Botox and other brands of botulinum toxin are rare, but can include:
Headaches
Swelling and redness around injection sites
Allergic reaction
Muscle weakness in the neck
The most dangerous complications are double vision and difficulty breathing, but these are thankfully extremely rare.
If you experience any side effects or complications due to your neck Botox, contact your practitioner immediately.
Not all practitioners will have training and experience in treating horizontal fine neck lines and wrinkles with Botox so choose your practitioner carefully.
We highly recommend that you only undergo neck Botox treatment with a medically-qualified professional, who will have undergone training in anatomy and physiology, as well as being accountable to a regulatory body such as the General Medical Council (GMC), Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) or General Dental Council (GDC).
They should also be able to advise you of the risks of injectable treatment and be confident in handling complications if they arise.
