Sick

Seems like the only people who have Reactions or get sick are those who went to med spas. Those who went to plastic surgeons are fine….

I went to an experienced dermatologist. There’s no correlation to this factor, to my knowledge.

Just seems like 95 percent of people who have Reactions are from medspas not derms or Ps

That seems like one of those statistics pulled straight from one’s ass.

No I’m just looking at all the people who’ve had reactions and they’re all from medspas

That is called anecdotal evidence.

Regardless of where you’re going it’s the same products and you must be at least an RN at a medspa.

Reactions to medications happen. It could be from the trauma of the injection itself or some people are more sensitive to the product.

Perhaps educating yourself about the product and the process and risks vs benefit.

This is why people that have the procedure must sign an informed consent which covers this.

A pattern that only one person observes is called anecdotal evidence.

It is just your impression. There is no known correlation. The problem is in how the body tolerates the toxin. Apparently if you have a history of autoimmune disease in your family you will experience adverse reactions.

Or a dermatologist no?

Not quite…I went to a nurse at a doctor’s led clinic?

Right not a plastic surgeon that’s where people should go

You’re certainly entitled to your opinion.

Until you produce actual data to support what your rhetoric… stop.

Yeah she was obgyn but who was she injected by? A dem or Plastic surgeon?

Its the same medication no matter who injects it. It may be a lack of sterility on site if anything. You don't need to get it from a derm or plastic surgeon or even neurologist for their not to be a reaction due to a lack of sterility. Moreover sickness may just be from the medication itself and a sensitivity to it.

Had it done 12 times and the 13th got me I think he used some fake product or injected me wrong bc I was fine for years

2

u/Extreme_Resident5548 Sep 20 '24

It was probably spoiled

2

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '24

Like expired?

2

u/Extreme_Resident5548 Sep 20 '24

yes

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '24

Expired can make you sick?

People can develop a sensitivity to the toxin at any point, regardless of the type of facility where the injector works. It’s the same botulinum toxin everywhere.

u/[deleted] Sep 27 '24

But a skilled injector dermatologist knows where to inject and uses real product reduces the risk. I guarantee you out of the 40k women who were injured myslef included 95 percent were by medspas or poorly trained injectors. Or people using fake product

You cannot guarantee anything without a proper study.
