I have diabetes and plan to get Botox for my forehead tomorrow. Is there any risk for me?

There is no contraindication for diabetes and botox treatments.  Botox works locally, so its effects distal from the site of injection are minimal.  Best Dr. Anil Shah

If your diabetes is well controlled you should have no problems getting Botox injections to the forehead. 

Dear hsoltani:As long your Diabetes Mellitus is well controlled, you should be safe having your Botox treatment for your forehead.  Wishing you all the best.  Dr. Chetty

Everyone has unique expressions. We move our facial muscles in a repetitive way and over time those repetitive movements cause wrinkles and fine lines. When you start to experience the signs of aging, Botox are available to diminish unwanted wrinkles and creases in your face. Botox  lock the release of a chemical called acetylcholine, which triggers the muscle contractions that create wrinkles. Botox essentially paralyze the muscles and stops them from contracting. Results from these treatments are visible within 3-7 days with results that can last anywhere from 3-4 months.Patients with well controlled diabetes should have no problems or concerns with getting Botox itself. Hope this helps. 

Thank you for your inquiry. Patients with well controlled diabetes should have no problems or concerns with getting Botox itself. I will say that the only important consideration is that the injector be a cosmetic doctor and that the environment must be clean. Diabetic patients have a slightly higher risk of infection post Botox and this risk can be minimized when you visit a medical clinic / spa.
Best regards, Dr. Bector 

Patients with diabetes whose blood sugar levels are well controlled ,have the same risks as the general population when treated with botox. Go ahead and indulge.

Botox works in the nerve ending of muscles, and do not interfere with any of your medications you are on.   And there are no contraindications to getting Botox injections with these diagnosis.  

Thank you for your question.  With well controlled diabetes, you may have a slightly higher risk for infection than the general public, however this risk is very small.  I hope you enjoy your new look!

Botox can safely be used in patients with diabetes as long as the diabetes is well controlled

Thank you for the question. You need to have well controlled diabetes before receiving Botox treatment. Good luck
