8 Side Effects of Botox
5. Botulism
This condition could occur hours to weeks after you have had an injection. Botulism happens when the effect of botulinum toxin starts affecting the other areas of the body that are far away from the injection site. Some of the symptoms of botulism are loss of strength, double or blurred vision, loss of voice, weak bladder control, and more.
6. Tingling/bruising
You may suffer bruising or tingling at the area where you have been injected. That particular area looks discolored as a result or as though you’ve just got out of a fight.
7. Facial paralysis
The way botox works is that it temporarily paralyzes the muscles of the desired area. Sometimes, the paralyzing effect spreads areas around the target area causing temporary paralysis. This can in turn result in facial paralysis.
8. Other side effects
You may suffer from temporary side effects like pain in the face, headaches, redness of the skin and nausea.
