Notox: The Shocking Truth About Cosmetic Injections (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798307178171)

Did you know that botulinum toxin injections (including Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, and Jeuveau) can make you severely ill?
Neither did Megan, until she developed botulism after receiving just 12 units of Xeomin once.

As her health began declining, she was left with many questions: How had this happened? What was her prognosis? Why could no doctors help her? And, given how disabling and long-lasting the adverse effects could be, how was this drug even legal?

Notox walks readers through the surprising history of botulinum toxin injections and the troubling legal cases involving the drug. Using data from the industry's own clinical trials, it exposes the havoc that is wreaked when these injections go wrong, and raises the critical question, "Are the benefits ever worth the risks?"

Notox tells you what your injector won't: the truth.
