Is it safe to have Botox at a medspa instead of at a plastic surgery center?

Question:
My spa offers BOTOX treatments for half of the cost of the doctors here in Virginia. Why would going to a doctor’s office be a better option? Is it really worth the money?

Answer:
This is a very common question. It all comes down to the reputation and technique of the injector. Anyone can learn to inject Botox but physicians such as facial plastic surgeons will have the best understanding of the anatomy and physiology. These physicians tend to also do more volume of Botox and hence, have gained more experience.
