I have ITP (immune thrombocytopenia, an auto immune disease). Can I get cosmetic botox? What about lip injections?

Asked By:botoxfest2016 in Toronto, ON

My platelets for the past several years have been in the normal range. I would like to get botox in my face to lessen wrinkles in my forehead, mainly "the 11" frown wrinkles. I am also interested in doing lip fillers. Thanks for your help!
