A new health report on the risks of using injections like Botox has consumers stampeding their way to natural, sexy eyes by using safer and proven eye creams – like Eyelastin – that offer similar results within the same timeframe, but without intrusive injections or the associated side effects.
An alarming and frightening report on Botox has emerged that has more consumers flocking to seek safe and over-the-counter, all-natural eye creams – like Dermagevity Skin Care’s best-selling eye cream, Eyelastin –as more information is being released by both the FDA (US Food and Drug Administration), and in alleged lawsuits over the safety of injected eye and wrinkle treatments like Botox.
In an article that was published in February in the popular online medium, Aboutlawsuits.com, the article informs of many different lawsuits that are currently arising over the associated risks and side effects of using popular injected anti-aging treatment methods, such as Botox, as well as citing the FDA’s Black Box Warning.
The article cites,
“There is currently a Botox trial underway in California, filed on behalf of 15 people who allege that they suffered severe or fatal side effects from Botox treatments. Among the plaintiffs in the case are the families of two young children who died after Botox injections to treat cerebral palsy.
The FDA warned about potential risks associated with Botox in February 2008, after a number of reports were received involving deaths, breathing problems and other adverse reactions associated with use of Botox. At that time, the FDA indicated that the adverse reactions were most commonly seen among children with cerebral palsy, where the typical dose of Botox injection used is substantially larger than what is normally prescribed for cosmetic purposes.
In August 2009, the FDA announced a new “black box” warning about the risk of Botox problems, including potentially life-threatening botulism-like side effects. The warning now alerts users that the toxin used in Botox and other some other products could spread from the area of the injection to other areas of the body. This could cause botulism symptoms, including life-threatening swallowing and breathing difficulties or death.”
