Botox on facial flushing. Could another approach make a difference?

December 13, 2018
Asked By:thomas54

I have a mild persistent erythema and facial flushing (rosacea). I tried botox with a dermatologist who used botox on facial flushing for the first time (one session, 27 units in both cheeks, no microdoplets). Results: no improvement. I also read that dilution and dosing may have an effect on the outcome. Some sucess case reports talk about very dilute concentration, superficially injections... wich was not the case at my first try. Could another approach make a difference?
