Is it bad to receive BOTOX regularly for a long time?
Intuitively, its not a great idea to use any medication for too long of a long time. In this case, however, there have been a number of good, long-term studies of patients using BOTOX for neurologic diseases. Over many years of use, BOTOX has shown no side effects or toxicity. These studies followed patients who were receiving amounts of BOTOX several times higher than the highest doses that cosmetic patients get. We therefore feel comfortable saying that using BOTOX regularly over many years is not dangerous.
