I am having local freezing at the dentist the day before my Botox injections for blepharospasm is this a problem?

Question

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

This should be fine, but I recommend following up with your Dentist about your intended Botox treatment the next day. Keep in mind, it takes 1-2 weeks for final results with Botox. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for sharing your question.  Likely this is fine as the freezing done internally should not impact your ability at receiving botox externally but you may want to clear this with your dentist.  Hope this helps.

Hi, and thank you for your query. I would recommend that you tell both practitioners of any upcoming (or recent) procedures. I don’t think either will affect the other, but it would be good practice to keep them informed. Best of luck!

Gregg Kennedy, MD · Answer

There should be no interaction between dental treatment and next-day Botox injections for blepharospasm.  Best to you, Dr. Kennedy

Chad Pfefer, MD · Answer

Thanks for the question.  The freezing will likely be localized to in the oral cavity as this is being done by your dentist?  If that is all that you're having done than superficial Botox injections should be fine.
