Allergan Inc., the manufacturer of the noted injectable known as Botox is in deep trouble.
Earlier this month, a group of Botox users slapped a lawsuit on Allergan Inc. claiming that the injectable injured some and even lead to the death of some users. They claimed that Allergen failed to inform the candidates about these effects and this negligence lead to such situations.
In February this year, the FDA issued a warning about the potential ill-effects of the cosmetic derived from botulinum toxin Type A after noticing debilitating problems among children who were administered with a dose for treating cerebral palsy and spasticity.
Sadly, this could be a bad thing for men and women who turn to Botox cosmetic or Myobloc (similar product) to reduce facial wrinkling and view it as an alternative to a cosmetic surgery like face lift.
The FDA however, is looking into the matter and hopefully will smoothen out things for this injectable. The benefits of Botox are many and varied, the effects ranging from duplicating a face lift surgery's effects (temporarily) to assisting in neurological conditions.
That said it is important to remember that no surgery or cosmetic enhancement is 100 percent safe, anomalies can and have been known to occur. The best plastic surgeons can do is reduce the chances of anything going wrong, like how we do at the Plastic Surgery Institute of California.
