What to Expect During the Process
Our specialists will discuss your symptoms and medical history to determine if Botox is the right treatment for you. If they decide that the treatment is appropriate for your case, we’ll write a prescription for your botox and book an appointment for you to come back to receive the injection. During the injection, the Botox is administered directly into the anal sphincter muscle, a process that takes just a few minutes. You may experience mild discomfort at the injection site, but this typically resolves quickly. Most patients resume normal activities immediately after the procedure
Some rare side effects of botox injections include:
Temporary flatus incontinence (you’ll have a little more gas) - 10%
Temporary stool incontinence (you may need to wear diapers for a bit) - 5%
Perianal hematoma - rare
Perianal abscess - rare
Perianal thrombosis - rare
Please Note: The Botox Injection is NOT covered by OHIP, but the consultation is.
