Botulinum Toxin Type A Preventing Complications

Posted on by

In this article we will discuss ways to prevent complications and adverse reactions with botulinum toxin type A for cosmetic use.

Step 1 know your medicines and how they work?

Botulinum Toxin for Cosmetic Use

There are three commercial brands botulinum toxin type Acurrently available. These are BOTOX, BOCOUTURE and AZZALURE. Please note the units and doses are not transferable with the different brands of botulinum toxin type A for cosmetic.

Understanding the mechanism of action is essential before treating a patient with botulinum toxins. This gives the practitioner the knowledge to understand how the toxin effects the neuromuscular transmission and release of acetylcholine. There are currently 22 major drug interactions with the botulinum toxin for cosmetic and a further 347 moderate interactions(1).

Many potential complications can be reduced by understanding the action of the toxin and any drug that will effect this mode of action.

Medicines that interact with botulinum toxins include:

  • Muscle relaxants/anti-spasmodic
  • Anti-histamines
  • Anti-cholinergic (in many cold and flu medicines)
  • Tricyclic anti-depressants

The British National Formulary (www.bnf.org) and drugs.com are a good resource for information about medicines.

The patient medical history must include questions regarding any medicine the patient has been taking prior to the treatment. The practitioner must identify any potential drug interactions and review further information then provide guidance. When identified proceed with caution some medicines such as muscle relaxants and anti-spasmodic drugs are deemed absolute contra indications.

In the next article we will review medical conditions that are contraindicated or have cautions associated with the treatment of botulinum toxin type a.

How to treat the tear trough plus correct the nose course

Posted on by


“The KT Training Tear Trough and Nose Correction is a Master Class for Advanced Cosmetic Physicians and Nurses”

The tear trough (under eye hollows) is one of most difficult areas in facial aesthetics to correct. Factors such as patient selection, injection techniques (combination treatments may also be required). The correct type and grade of product must be addressed to produce successful results. Before attending this workshop clinicians should complete the advanced botox and dermal filler course. During the advanced course you will learn to augment the malar and cheek area. When treating these indications you will also reduce the hollows under the eye.

Minor nose imperfections such as scars and asymmetry will also be covered with these products.

The products used for hands on workshop are hyaluronic acid fillers such as JUVEDERM, BELOTERO and TEOSYAL. Candidates will be assessing, and injecting patients, supervised by their trainer.

The main cause for the appearance of under eyes hollows with regards to ageing is the descent of the malar fat pad. We discussed earlier the benefits of correcting the fat pad with a high viscosity dermal filler and the reduction in the tear troughs. The area can then be corrected with a lower viscosity filler to achieve the results. Product selection and techniques may vary depending on the cause of the hollow, depth and skin condition.
