Anti-wrinkle injections are packaged in a small glass vial, which is vacuumed. The contents exist as a thin white powder which requires reconstitution with a diluent.
To prepare botulinum toxin, first check that the diluent (i.e. saline) is in date. Draw up the stated dose of the diluent using the syringe with the needle placed into the diluent capsule. Ensure there are no air bubbles in the syringe.
Next, flip the cap off the anti-wrinkle treatment and insert the needle. The pressure created by the vacuum will automatically pull the product into the syringe.
Of course. While common side effects may include bruising, swelling, and redness at the injection site, anti-wrinkle injections, such as Botox, are generally considered safe when administered correctly by doctors or similarly trained aestheticians.
An in-person consultation should also occur prior to treatment to assess patient suitability and minimise potential risks.
