Sample Informed Consent Form for
Neurotoxin Injections
I authorize Dr. ___________ to perform injection of Botox/Dysport/Xeomin on me.
Indications for procedure: Facial wrinkles
Risks of procedure: Bleeding, bruising, pain, infections, asymmetry, not fully im-
proved wrinkles, temporary drooping of the eyelid, need for additional treatment,
may also need filler for improved correction. In addition, there have been reports of
distant spread of botulinum toxin that has resulted in secondary problematic weak-
ness. These observations have been reported only in children being treated for spas-
ticity and have never been reported with the cosmetic use of these products.
Alternative treatments: No treatment, filler injection, chemical peels, laser re-
surfacing, etc.
Photographs: I give my consent for photographs to be taken before and after the
procedure for documentation.
I will allow these photographs to be shown to other patients. My name and other
personal information will not be disclosed. YES NO
I will allow these photographs to be placed on the Internet. My name and other
personal information will not be disclosed. YES NO
I understand that the results of these injections are not immediate and it may
take 7 to 10 days for the full effect of the injection to be seen.
I am aware that the practice of medicine and surgery is not an exact science, and
I acknowledge that no guarantees have been given to me concerning the results of
this procedure.
