Answer: Hello Yasmin

Great results are about placement of the toxin by great injectors, who understand facial anatomy.

Only Dentists, Doctors and Nurses cover anatomy, pharmacology and physiology in depth over their 4-6 year degree course. Also the only injectors supported by and allowed to inject these prescription medications by the companies that make toxins.

Botolax does not have a licence in the UK, no licensed medical professional would use an unlicensed medicine when they can legitimately purchase very effective products from legitimate suppliers.

So it's the who you are going to for your treatments?

Kind regards
Dr Victoria

Answer: Hi Yasmin,

It’s difficult to comment without a consultation to see your concern. If you’re referring to the vertical lines then I would expect any of the botulinum toxins to work nicely. Most people have around 4-5 of them and you would add maybe 10-20 units per band so their plan all sounds reasonable. I wouldn’t expect you to have resistance in one area only but maybe the depth wasn’t correct for the treatment. Increasing the dose is likely to lead to unfortunate side effects like difficulty getting out of bed!! and raising your head. I hope this has been of some benefit and if I can help you further at finesse skin clinic then do let me know.
