The Massachusetts Department of Public Health (DPH) is warning the public about a growing cluster of botulism cases linked to cosmetic botulinum toxin (commonly referred to as “Botox”) injections administered at Rodrigo Beauty, located at 464 Granite Ave. in Milton, Massachusetts. As of today, 10 cases of suspected iatrogenic botulism are under investigation, all associated with procedures performed at this spa.
Iatrogenic botulism is a rare but serious illness caused by botulinum toxin spreading beyond the injection site, potentially leading to life-threatening symptoms.
