Claim Breakdown:
📝 Fact Check: Botox (Botulinum toxin type A) is indeed a potent neurotoxin and carries an FDA black-box warning for rare, severe side effects if it spreads beyond the injection site. However, decades of clinical consensus show it is overwhelmingly safe and well-tolerated when administered correctly by a medical professional in cosmetic doses. Suggesting it is inherently 'detrimental' ignores clinical safety data in favour of fear-mongering. 💉
