Send us a textIn this episode of Unwritten Beauty Talks, Katarina Forster sits down with Megan McCue, a medical speech-language pathologist and author who bravely shares her personal experience with Botox and the serious side effects she faced.Megan opens up about developing iatrogenic botulism after receiving a small dose of Xeomin and how that experience led her to advocate for informed consent, transparency, and patient education around botulinum toxin injections. Together, Katarina and Megan explore the medical community's response to toxin-related symptoms, the importance of understanding neurotoxins, and how patients can make safer, more informed decisions. The episode also touches on holistic alternatives to Botox, redefining beauty beyond aesthetics, and embracing confidence and wellness from the inside out.
Hemifacial Spasm is a potentially debilitating condition where the facial muscles of expression spasm uncontrollably. Botulinum toxin can control the spasm, but in severe cases, minimally invasive surgery for microvascular decompression of the facial nerve is more efficacious. Listen to Chris B's story as he dealt with this issue and sought definitive care at the Pacific Neuroscience Institute with Dr. Garni Barkhoudarian and Dr. Melita Petrossian.
Tune into this new episode of Life by a Thousand Cuts: a HealthCert podcast series hosted by A/Prof Tony Dicker, offering practical, case-based insights in skin cancer surgery for GPs. In this episode, A/Prof Dicker dives into a fascinating study from Egypt exploring unconventional treatments for keloid scars, including insulin and Botulinum toxin injections. The trial, published in the Journal of Dermatologic Surgery in June 2025, compared these options with the standard intralesional corticosteroids. While steroids remained the most effective overall, the study found some interesting pros and cons for each approach, including fewer steroid-related side effects with insulin or Botulinum toxin. A/Prof Dicker breaks down the trial design, results, and practical takeaways for GPs, and shares when he might (and might not) consider these alternatives in clinical practice.

Botox - or Botulinum toxin injections - has become mainstream. It's no longer for the super-rich and A-list celebrities. As it's become cheaper and more beauticians on the high street are offering it, its use is starting to become more widespread and normalised. Influencers are open about (some of) the non-surgical procedures they've had done. Why has it become so popular? BBC Health and Wellbeing reporter Annabel Rackham explains how these anti-wrinkle injections work (the most common of which is the product Botox) and how they differ from other “tweakments” like filler. We also discuss the potential risks of getting these injections as well as a recent case of hospitalisations after fake Botox was used. And what to be aware of if you've decided you want to get it done. BBC Africa Health correspondent Dorcas Wangira explains the rising demand for non-surgical beauty procedures in Kenya and why the authorities there are trying to crack down on unlicensed clinics and spas and practitioners with no registration.

Like manicures and blowouts before, more and more people are turning to injectable maintenance treatments. Botox, short for Botulinum toxin, is an anti-wrinkle treatment that's trickled down to more and more Kiwis, after being widely received as a celebrity-exclusive treatment. Dr Sarah Hart joined the Afternoons team to discuss further. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Is looking wrinkle-free really worth injecting a neurotoxin that could mess with your brain, body, and hormones? In this eye-opening episode, I'm joined by truth-teller and health advocate Gretch Elizabeth from NeverTox to pull back the curtain on one of the most accepted—and least questioned—cosmetic procedures: Botox. What if the pursuit of smooth skin is quietly sabotaging your health? Gretch breaks down the science behind botulinum toxin—the neurotoxin that, with repeated injections, may have long-term, life-threatening consequences. This is the conversation every woman deserves before saying “yes” to the needle. Gretch Elizabeth is a passionate patient advocate who helps run the Never Tox Community Group—the largest international Botox injury support group in the world—dedicated to supporting individuals affected by botulinum toxin injuries through resources and education. Gretch and her team have worked tirelessly to promote informed consent.

Summary In this episode of the Future of Dermatology Podcast, we hear from Dr. Maria Aleshin who spoke at the Annual SF Derm Society's 2024 Meeting. She presents on Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) and various non-biologic treatment strategies. Dr. Aleshin covers practical approaches to managing HS flare-ups, long-term management considerations, and the role of antibiotics in treatment. She emphasizes the importance of personalized care and the need for a multifaceted approach to effectively address this challenging skin condition. Takeaways The pathogenesis of HS is multifactorial, requiring a comprehensive treatment approach. Treatment stacking often involves combining medical, procedural, and lifestyle interventions. Topical therapies like chlorhexidine and benzoyl peroxide are commonly recommended, but alternatives exist. Systemic antibiotics are frequently used for managing HS flares. Hormonal therapies, including oral contraceptives and spironolactone, can be effective for female patients with HS. Metformin may be beneficial for patients with metabolic dysfunction associated with HS. Isotretinoin is not a first-line treatment for HS due to mixed results. Botulinum toxin can help reduce sweating and inflammation in HS patients. Combination antibiotic therapy, particularly clindamycin and rifampin, shows high efficacy but has relapse risks. Urtipenem is a powerful antibiotic reserved for severe HS cases as a bridge to surgery or biologics.

Summary In this episode of The Future of Dermatology Podcast, Dr. Faranak Kamangar discusses hyperhidrosis, a common condition characterized by excessive sweating. The conversation covers the causes, prevalence, and various treatment options available, including topical treatments, botulinum toxin injections, oral medications, and advanced technologies like ionophoresis and miradry. Dr. Kamangar emphasizes the importance of patient education and setting realistic expectations for treatment outcomes. Takeaways Hyperhidrosis is often diagnosed by patients before seeing a doctor. The condition can be debilitating and affects various aspects of life. Most cases of hyperhidrosis are primary, with few secondary causes. Topical antiperspirants are the first line of treatment. Setting expectations is crucial for patient satisfaction with treatments. Botulinum toxin is effective but can be painful for patients. Oral medications can be used but have contraindications. Ionophoresis is a viable option for some patients. Emerging technologies like microneedling for botulinum toxin show promise. Patient education is key to managing hyperhidrosis effectively.

Cervical dystonia (sometimes called neck dystonia) is the abnormal position of the muscles of the neck, causing a twisted, turned, flexed or extended neck position. Abnormal signals coming from the deep parts of the brain cause this condition and therefore it is not muscular in nature and will not resolve with muscle massage or stretching.The mainstay of treatment of cervical dystonia is with injection of botulinum toxin, such as Botox or Xeomin. Botulinum toxin injections work by causing a disruption between the nerve and the muscle, thereby weakening the muscle that it is injected into. For cervical dystonia, because the muscles that are pulling or twisting the neck to one side are overactive, Botox works to calm those specific muscles down and allows for a more natural and neutral head position.

The decision to diminish fine lines and look our best via a noninvasive injection weighs heavily on both women and men today. If you have used, or are considering using, Botox, also known as Botulinum neurotoxin serotype A, you don't want to miss this episode. Botox is big business; the global Botulinum Toxins Market is projected to grow from $7.49 billion in 2023 to $10.62 billion by 2030. But, besides the price tag, is there a cost to the user's health long-term? Especially considering researchers at The University of Queensland have shown how Botox is transported via our nerves back to the central nervous system. Our guest, Emily Trampetti, is a Master Licensed Esthetician and founder of Skin Property is here to shed light on this dark side of our obsession for a more youthful appearance. KEY TAKEAWAYS · Why someone listening should avoid Botox and its competitors. · The long-term effects most people don't know about. · Some of the psychological beauty factors that push the hype of Botox and other invasive preventative measures. · How some clinics and companies are breaking the law by advertising Botox and even purchasing Botox illegally. · Tips to age well and with grace. · Factors people should people be paying attention to as they age, and when. If you suffer from various skin issues including acne, severe dryness, rosacea, eczema, and even premature wrinkles, head over to skinproperty.co to learn more or book a consultation with Emily.

Join me for a summary looking at the use of botox for deep bite management and bruxism. This was an interesting lecture by Dr Nan Hatch from Seattle, which was presented at this year's AAO 2023. She explored the use of Botox for masseter hypertrophy and the evidence around it. Masseter hypertrophy when combined with bruxism can result in: o Long term changes in function o Fixation breakages o Orofacial pain, tmd, mobility How does it work? · Injection of neurotoxin into muscle · Temporary partial paralysis through chemical denervation · Most common Botulinum toxin or Botox · Mechanism of action o Block acetylcholine (neuromuscular transmission) release. o Also inhibit pain sensory neuron How to inject · Extra oral – use of facial landmarks · Intra-oral Use MRI / EMG guided injection What are the effects · Anticipate change facial aesthetics · Greater facial contouring achieved with higher dosage Review Wu 2023 · Last up to 180 days · Greater complications with greater dosage Anticipated change from botox · Treatment for masseteric hypertrophy o 35 units to masseter , two injections o 91% reported improvement headaches o Duration 25 months Decrease bite force Ahn 2007 · 25 units to each massenteric muscle · Mean bite force 51kg /cm using bite block attached to a transducer o Reduced to 30-36kg/cm for 8 weeks (29%-41% reduction) o After 41kg after 12 weeks , no longer statistically significant · Significantly reduced bite force up to 8 weeks Potential adverse effects · Chewing weakness · Sunken cheeks – high volume · Headaches · Sagging skin · Asymmetry · Paradoxical Bulging – miss masseter and affect other muscles · Distant spread of toxin · Speech disturbance · Muscle fiber atrophy 4-6 weeks, remover 4-6 weeks Chemical denervation protocol · 25 units per muscle, both masetter and temporalis · Interval 4-5 months and patient response · 3-5 serial injections o Some patients changes can be permanent

Mary sent me an email with a news article attached. The article said that 47% of people don't think that life will ever get back to normal after the Covid-19 pandemic. If you listen to the smallpox episodes, the Spanish flu episode and the polio episode, many of the same things happened that happened during the Covid pandemic. Schools were shut down, social distancing was a thing, people wore masks, they were encouraged to stay home, there was grocery delivery, there were vaccine mandates and there were travel cards. People had to prove that they were vaccinated before they could travel. During the polio epidemic, no one could leave New York City without proof that they had been vaccinated. As I sit here today, the Covid-19 pandemic has had relatively little long term affect on people. We're no longer wearing masks or social distancing. I haven't had to show my vaccination card in ages. What it comes down to is this: People as a rule are extremely short-sighted. They don't see past next week or next month. They think everything is going to last forever. Especially if that thing is something they view as negative. In truth, very few policies surrounding healthcare crises remain permanent. Our society is more concerned with war than public health. This is why 911 caused way more changes to society than Covid-19 ever will. At the end of the day, we're far more concerned about the cost of rebuilding infrastructure than we are with any sort of human destruction. Even though, human destruction is priceless.

Botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT-A), often referred to as ‘Botox', is increasingly in cosmetic procedures. However, long-term use and high doses of BoNT-A may lead to immunoresistance, limiting its future therapeutic benefit. A panel of experts including Dr Mary Dingley, Cosmetic Medicine Centre, Australia, is addressing this emerging issue. They offer guidance to practitioners and promote a culture of open communication with patients about BoNT-A risks, to empower individuals to make a fully informed decision.

This week we're diving into the world of neuromodulators. There's still a stigma that exists with botox along with many misconceptions. Neuromodulators (aka neurotoxins or BoTox) are an anti-wrinkle treatment that help soften fine lines and wrinkles. Botulinum toxin was first used medically and cosmetically in the late-1980s. Since then, several versions of botulinum toxin have been developed and FDA approved for use. These include Botox Cosmetic, Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau. Join us in today's episode as we talk about how neuromodulators work, who should avoid neuromodulators, what are some common side effects that can occur, and what are some misconceptions and evidence-based facts regarding neuromodulator treatment. Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, TuneIn, or on your favorite podcast platform. Topics Covered: What are neuromodulators? How do neuromodulators work The different FDA-approved neuromodulators available Who should not get treated with neuromodulators Potential adverse reactions with neuromodulator treatment Myths vs facts about neuromodulators How we feel about neuromodulators as naturopathic doctors Connect With Us: Connect with Dr. Bryant Esquejo on Instagram, Youtube, and TikTok Interested in becoming a patient in Los Angeles?

Thanks for tuning in to the Armor Men's Health Hour Podcast today, where we bring you the latest and greatest in urology care and the best urology humor out there.In this segment, Dr. Mistry and Donna Lee answer a listener who wants to know if "scrotox" could help him with his buried penis. Dr. Mistry explains that buried penis--a subject frequently discussed on the podcast--is as much a functional concern as it is a cosmetic one. In many cases, patients with a buried penis develop recurrent yeast infections from the inability to hold their penis and direct their urine stream. These patients can also can be difficult to catheterize. Another concern is lichen sclerosus, where patients have diseased skin around their penis or scrotum that must be removed and replaced with a skin graft. For this listener's buried penis, Dr. Mistry doesn't recommend scrotox. This term describes the use of the same Botulinum toxin used in Botox for the treatment of various issues with the scrotum. Scrotox can be used to relax the skin for men who have naturally tight scrotums. Sometimes, the issue isn't the scrotum itself, but rather the testicles squeezing too high into the abdomen. In this case, cremasteric relief surgery can help. If you or someone you know is suffering from buried penis, has a tight or uncomfortable scrotum, or feels like their testicles are being crushed, please give us a call today!

Skin wrinkles or furrows, such as on the forehead or around the eyes, are caused by the underlying muscles. Botox - or Botulinum toxin - is a medical chemical designed to temporarily weaken or relax those muscles, allowing the skin to be smoother. The smoothing effects of Botox treatments generally lasts 3-4 months. Lewisburg Plastic Surgery & Dermatology has extensive experience in the use of Botox. Still have questions?

Botox isn't just for wrinkles any more! The FDA approved Botox in 2010 for treatment of chronic migraines. Botox is a man made drug that comes from a toxin produced by the bacteria Clostridium botulinum. Botulinum toxin is a neurotoxin that is one of the most poisonous biological substances known. How does Botox work? Botox enters the nerve endings at the injection sites and blocks the release of chemicals involved in pain. This essentially prevents pain signals from going to the brain, relieving migraines. Visit our website www.thenursingpostpodcast.com for show notes and references in todays episode.

Botulinum toxin and surgical intervention in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy: who, when and why do we treat?Jane Valentine, Sue-Anne Davidson, Natasha Bear, Eve Blair, Roslyn Ward, Ashleigh Thornton , Katherine Stannage, Linda Watson, David Forbes, Catherine Elliott PMID: 31415723DOI: 10.1080/09638288.2019.1644381AbstractIntroduction: This audit aimed to increase understanding of the long-term outcomes of evidence-based medical and surgical interventions to improve gross motor function in children and adolescents with Cerebral Palsy.Methods: Retrospective audit of a birth cohort (2000-2009) attending a tertiary service in Western Australia.Results: The cohort comprises 771 patients aged 8 to 17 years. Percentage of children receiving no Botulinum Toxin treatments in each Gross Motor Functional Classification System level was: I: 40%, II: 26%, III: 33%, IV: 28% and V: 46%. Of the total cohort, 53% of children received 4 or less Botulinum Toxin treatments and 3.7% received more than 20 treatments. Statistically significant difference in the rate of use of Botulinum Toxin pre and post-surgery (p < 0.001) was documented. Children levels IV and V had 5 times the odds of surgery compared to children levels I-III (Odds Ratio 5.2, 95% Confidence Interval 3.5 to 7.8, p < 0.001). For 578 (75%) of participants the last recorded level was the same as the first.Conclusion: This audit documents medical intervention by age and Gross Motor Functional Classification System level in a large cohort of children with cerebral palsy over time and confirms stability of the level in the majority.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONThe information from this audit may be of use in discussions with families regarding the timing and use of Botulinum toxin and surgical intervention for motor function in children and adolescents with Cerebral Palsy.Long term use of Botulinum Toxin within an integrated evidence-based clinical program is not associated with loss of gross motor function in the long term as evidenced by the maintenance of Gross Motor Functional Classification System stability.Keywords: Cerebral palsy; botulinum toxin; children; gross motor function classification; orthopedic surgery.

Episode 013: An action plan for getting the most out of The PTSD Blueprint. See, this is the last podcast in The PTSD Blueprint and now you know just how complex PTSD issues can be. In the last episode you can see how Endocannabinoid Receptor Deficiency burns out the body system and makes people susceptible to suffering the symptoms. In this episode, we'll look at the toxins, nutrition, exercise and environmental stressors that can all affect PTSD. The worst-case scenario occurs when an increasing number of dimensions are struggling at the same time. For example, physical pain, anxiety, insomnia, loneliness, and guilt. Combinations of symptoms like this affect the physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional dimensions. The PTSD survivor feels like there is no where they can turn to get relief. Now that you've gotten through The PTSD Blueprint, you can see how puzzling it is for people. We should probably marvel that our PTSD therapies work at all. That they do work, highlights only how resilient people are and not necessarily how bright psychologists and psychiatrists have treated trauma wounds over the years. The PTSD Detox Now that you've listened to the first 13 podcasts, downloaded The PTSD Blueprint, you're ready to put it into action using the PTSD Academy 100-Day Detox Challenge. The premise is simple, take specific actions in each of the four dimensions of self: physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional. Imagine how good you will feel if you not only exercise your physical body for 100 days in a row, but also your mind, emotions, and spirit. Rules for the 100-Day Challenge Do at least one item for each of the 4 categories per day, for 100 days. Put your own spin on it - after all, it's your plan to get better. After 100 exercise repetitions per day for 100 days, you will have done 10,000 repetitions! Toxins in the food supply Our bodies are made to be integrated with nature, not inside climate-controlled, man-made boxes with unnatural light that doesn't have the full spectrum. It's been well documented that the food supply has artificial, man-made ingredients that are not recognized or are downright toxic to the gut. This triggers an inflammatory response that directly affects brain health and mental health problems. When health nutrition is supplied, depression improves, so I would expect it to also help PTSD. Water and food are packaged, processed, and delivered while in contact with plastic. Plastic leaches out toxic chemicals, worse under heat. Bisphenol-A (BPA) is one of the chemicals that come off the plastic. This is why people say don't drink water out of plastic bottles that have set out in the heat. Many companies are now offering BPA-free plastics, but BPA is only one of many chemicals that leach off the plastic. Dental root canals can mimic PTSD symptoms I watched a scary documentary called Root Cause that made a convincing case about the danger of leaving dead tooth tissue inside the root that gets left behind. Botulinum toxin, the same toxin that is injected to make nerves die and causes rigor mortis, gets released slowly from the old, dead nerve root tissue. Just like medications and food preservatives, toxins entering the body are monitored, arrested, and destroyed by the immune system. The complexity of the biochemistry of an inflammatory response leads to what can be thought of as a final common pathway for disease: inflammation, swelling, weight gain, decreased immune response with increased propensity to get infections, insomnia from the cortisol, cognitive clouding, and increased perception of pain. When you start feeling like this it becomes very difficult to maintain self-care, so the medical problems can really start piling up. Environmental stressors that impact PTSD Our earth has become toxic. Many believe we are witnessing our last days on earth as we know it. Our food and water are contaminated. Oh, and it turns out that cell phone signals are actually bad for you and,
