I understand Florida Dentists are permitted to inject botox if certified. I see there are courses for Dental Hygienist as well. What are the limitations for Dental Hygienists with regards to Botox injections?

Answer: Dnetal hygienists injecting Botulinum Toxin (Dysport or Botox) in Florida
Although bruising can occur immediately, it may not be visible in thicker skinned areas and may appear 2-3 days later as it settles in areas of thinner skin. This is not uncommon in the forehead where the bruises settle in the lower eyelids.
If this followed the Botulinum Toxin (Dysport or Botox) injection, I supppose some form of muscle imbalance could potentially constrict the vein with activity but I would find that highly unusual.
