How risky is it to have an ENT Dr. do cosmetic Botox injections for the crows feet, the 11s and forehead?

Many ENT surgeons are very comfortable with Botox injections. As long as they are board-certified and perform the treatment regularly, it shouldn't typically be an issue. My only recommendation is to see someone who performs many Botox injections, not just occasionally, as this is likely to get you the best results.
All the best,

I am glad you are asking this question; it shows that you are being cautious about who does your injections and this is the best way of getting a good result.   An ENT with experience in botox or dysport should be able to perform the treatment for you.  That said, there are many providers, including nurses and physicians, and even aestheticians, that are jumping into the aesthetic space.  They take a weekend course and then start performing Botox.  The four aesthetic core specialties are: Dermatology, Plastic Surgery, Facial plastics, and Oculoplastics. Providers in the core will typically have thousands more hours and procedures under their belts.  It makes sense to go to a core physician for your treatment.

Almost all facial plastic surgeons are ENT trained, so if your ENT has extensive experience with Botox, I'm sure you are in good hands. ENT are surgical specialists of the face and neck, so we know the anatomy quite well. Many specialize in aesthetic medicine. Just make sure the ENT has experience.Andrew Campbell, M.D.Facial Rejuvenation SpecialistQuintessa Aesthetic Centers
