Does Botox Ever Cause Permanent Damage?

Botox will not cause permanent damage, as it is temporary. The effects of Botox will last 3 months on average, and sometimes longer depending on the patient. I would recommend following up with your surgeon, as they know the extent of your initial treatment. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck. 

Thank you for your question. Botox will not cause permanent damage at all. Botox will typically last 3-4 months based on the average person. I would advise you to consult with an expert injector. Hope this information helps.

Botox shouldn't last longer than 3-4 months. If you haven't followed up with your provider, you should so they are able to assess what's happened and help guide you with your expectations. For a comprehensive list of the potential side effects of Botox, please visit the website referenced below.

Botox numbs muscles for about 3 months.  After 3 months the ability of your muscles to contract returns.  If had botox injections several times done regularly, a muscle can be weakened to a point that it takes much longer for it to regain it's strength.  But aside from that, Botox is never permanent

I am not aware of any reports of permanent damage being caused by Botox. The effects of Botox normally wear off after three or four months however for some people this can take longer, but the effects do eventually go away. However, complications may also be caused by the injection process itself which may or may not be permanent. I suggest you follow-up with your physician for evaluation.

The effects of the Botox molecule on the ACH receptor are not permanent. However, I would discuss your concerns with your surgeon to discuss options for correction, whether or not it was caused by the Botox. Raffy Karamanoukian, Santa Monica

I am not aware of Botox causing any permanent effect.  In most cases, the effect of Botox will last about 3-4 months but can last to about 6 months in some treated areas in some people.  

The treatment with Botox is temporary, that is to say, the effects that it produces are only present for the time of action of the medicine, so when this time, which can be from 4 to 6 months, is not effective. All the effects that it can produce only have this duration so there will be no permanent damage. If there is an undesired effect of the medicine or you do not like the appearance of what is left, everything will return to normal after this time. 

Botox will not cause permanent damage.  The effect is generally short lived and will usually go away in 3 - 4 months.  

Botox never permanently relaxes muscles. It works 3 to 6 months. No permanent harm can be expected
