Experienced Botox Injector - Even if Not a Dermatologist or Plastic Surgeon?

May 11, 2010
Asked By:3324anon

Do you think an MD (previously Family Practitioner) who had devoted their practice solely to medical aesthetics, and who administers Botox regularly, would be a good choice for this product? I see that a PS or Dermatologist is usually recommended, but do you think experience of injecting counts for a lot--or is a PS a safer choice?
