Is it unusual that my MD doesn't wear gloves when doing my Botox?

It is normal practice to wear gloves while injecting Botox. This is because there is always a chance a tiny amount bleeding can occur. Wearing gloves prevents the spread of disease to the injector. Also, the practice of not wearing gloves violates OSHA standards and should not be standard practice.

I cannot speak for other plastic surgeons, however it is uncommon to not wear gloves. In my practice it is standard for me to wear gloves during all treatments and procedures. If you continue seeing this MD i advise for you to request for him to wear gloves.
