    2. Ensure the injected volume/dose is accurate and kept to a minimum.
    3. Avoid injection near the levator superioris, particularly in patients with larger brows.
    4. Medial corrugator injections should be placed 1cm above the bony supraorbital ridge.
    5. If the patient has a history of ptosis or appears they might be at risk for ptosis, i.e., small forehead, consider using Dysport with 1.5cc NS dilution.

  21. After each injection, a cold compress or ice can be applied to the injection site.
  22. When the procedure is completed, the client will be educated to perform the dynamic facial expressions for the next hour, not to rub or manipulate the injection sites, not to lie down for a period of 4 hours, and to report any problems or complications to the office immediately.
  23. Typically, the initial doses of reconstituted Botulinum Toxin A product induces chemical denervation of the injected muscles one to two days after the procedure, increasing in intensity during the first week.

Safety Procedures:

In order to reduce the complication of eyelid ptosis, the following steps should be taken:

  • All new patients to BTA must have a Good Faith exam done by a BHRC Physician, Nurse Practitioner, or Physician Assistant prior to receiving treatment.
  • Avoid injection near the levator palpebrae superioris, particularly in patients with larger brow depressor complexes.
  • Lateral corrugator injections should be placed at least 1 cm above the bony supraorbital ridge.
  • Ensure the injected volume/dose is accurate and, where feasible kept to a minimum.
  • Avoid injecting toxin closer than 1 centimeter above the central eyebrow.

Patients with the following cannot be treated with Botulinum Toxin A:

  • Active neuromuscular diseases
  • Currently pregnant or breast-feeding
  • Undiagnosed recent shooting eye pain

Important Safety Information for all Botulinum Toxin A Products

Postmarketing reports indicate that the effects of all Botulinum Toxin A products may spread from the area of injection to produce symptoms consistent with Botulinum Toxin A effects. These may include asthenia, generalized muscle weakness, diplopia, blurred vision, ptosis, dysphagia, dysphonia, dysarthria, urinary incontinence, and breathing difficulties. These symptoms have been reported hours to weeks after injection. Swallowing and breathing difficulties can be life-threatening, and there have been reports of death. The risk of symptoms is probably greatest in children treated for spasticity, but symptoms can also occur in adults treated for spasticity and other conditions, particularly in those patients who have underlying conditions that would predispose them to these symptoms. In unapproved uses, including spasticity in children and adults, and in approved indications, cases of spread of effect have been reported at doses comparable to those used to treat cervical dystonia and at lower doses.

Record Keeping:

The AUTHORIZED LICENSED MEDICAL PERSONNEL shall be responsible for maintaining client records and inputting them into EMR, including but not limited to client assessment; Good Faith Exam; signed informed consent of risks, benefits, and potential adverse effects; the number of treatments; treatment sites; the number of injections; and client response to treatment.
