As of 1st October 2021, in England, individuals must be at least 18 years old to receive Botox injections, regardless of whether they have the consent of a responsible adult. Most adults above the legal age can undergo Botox treatment, with some exceptions.   If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is advisable to avoid Botox, although no known dangers have been identified thus far. Other common instances where Botox should be avoided include having any neuromuscular conditions or taking specific medications such as amino glycoside antibiotics.   The recommendation for Botox treatment is typically made on a case-by-case basis, taking into account individual requirements and reactions. It is contraindicated for individuals who are allergic to components of the botulinum toxin, those with body dysmorphic disorder, and individuals with keloidal scarring, among others. Please refer to the full list of contraindications located just above the FAQ section.
