Anil R. Shah, MD · Answer

Hello tiagirl! My name is Jessica, I am a physician assistant and one of the providers at Shah Facial Plastics. It is best to discuss with your cardiologist to treat your SVT before considering other treatments. However, generally, if you have a stable heart rhythm at the time of getting your Botox injections, then it is safe to receive Botox. I hope this helps!

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

It is best that you work with your cardiologist to treat your supraventricular tachycardia before considering other treatments.  After it is controlled you can consider Botox injections.

Douglas Taranow, DO, FACOS · Answer

There is no correlation of Botox and SVT.  If you are in a stable heart rhythm at the time of your Botox injection, you should be fine.  The Botox should not affect your heart rhythm.
Best wishes,
Dr. Taranow
