If you're a new injector, then preparing Botox for the first time can feel daunting. In fact, when I received my first ever Botox vial I phoned the distributer because I thought they'd sent me an empty bottle. Turns out that wasn't the first time they'd heard that!
In this video I share how I prepare my Botox for injecting, the reconstitution used, how I draw Botox, and my top tips for ensuring your needle stays primed and sharp ready for injection.

In this video I'm using 2.5mls of Bacteriostatic Saline mixed with the botulinum toxin & a BD syringe.

Why do you use Bacteriostatic Saline and not steril water?

@lin9688 5 ай бұрын

What about gas one not powder

@@iraq58 because steril water stings like hell when you inject it

As you've diluted 100UI with 2.5 ml of saline, it wouldn't be 1:1 ratio. Do you keep that in mind? Or you just consider that dilution as 1:1 anyways

Since the toxin is in pressurized vapor form, wouldn't you lose some of the product by letting the air pressure release with a needle?

This was a great demonstration. Just wondering if you hVe heard that flicking the BD syringe was bad bc it releases chemicals from the plastic. Would love to know your thoughts on this.

How do you get the metal ring off so you can pull the rubber stopper out?

@FarrahBecker-fy9jl Жыл бұрын

There’s a round pliers type device sold to remove the metal rings.

If you are planning to take the rubber stopper out then why not take it out first and just add the saline without worrying about the vacuum and therefore bubbles? Is it so that you can mix it with the vial stopper in place?

Can we mix 5ml saline in a 50 unit botox vial?

@Sisipatel18 Жыл бұрын

So I don’t have to let it chill I can just inject after getting it ready?

@marybrown9035 8 ай бұрын

I thought 2.5 for 100 u botox

@albinabk9794 6 ай бұрын

What about for 500 units?

@jasimkerim2370 5 ай бұрын

Ohhh Dr. Your technique is wrong . You must not shake the mixture in hard way...but..in very gentel way. You must not pull the rubber cover ..this lead to lose of product sterlity.. You must not full all the 1 ml syring with product because you will not control the injection process. easily ...

Just curious if you don't neutralize the toxin vial what would happen？

If the vacuum is not removed it becomes difficult and slow to aspirate using the insulin syringes because the aspiration pressure will be lower than the vacuum pressure. Also the vacuum negative pressure will pull air bubbles into the aspirate in the syringe from around the plunger from the empty part of the syringe behind the plunger.
