Question

Thank you for your question. Yes, you can have Botox treatment as it is not a contradiction of fasciculation syndrome. I still recommend having a consultation with an expert injector to discuss your concerns and to determine the best treatment plan for you. Best of Luck!

Benjamin C. Paul, MD · Answer

Botox is safe in the setting of dermatographism. You write also about benign fascination syndrome - thinking that was an autocorrect - and it is supposed to be benign fasiculation syndrome. This is not an absolute contra-indication for botox, meaning that it would likely be safe to proceed. Ultimately, this is a decision between you and your injector. Best of luck!

Leonard Grossman, MD · Answer

You can definitely have a Botox treatment even in the face of dermagraft having been used in the past. Good luck from New York City
