Botox side effects

Kris M. Reddy, MD answers: Botox side effects - how can I avoid them?

I read that Botox has some side effects like droopy eyelids. Is Botox safe?  Any tips for making sure my Botox (first time!) has no bad side effects?

Any experienced injector who is properly trained and credentialled can minimize or eliminate side effects related to Botox. Botox should be stored properly and used within the prescribed time. Therefore, the physician that you go to must have sufficient patient flow to utilize the product in a timely manner.
