Yes, there is illegal Botox and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has finally begun to crack down on those who sell it and those who inject it. Many people ask why Botox is so cheap at certain locations and the reason is that it is illegal. In addition, it may not even be Botox but a poor substitute that does not work as well. Whether it is real or not, imported Botox is illegal and unethical to inject and may be dangerous as well in the wrong hands.

So for the consumer who is looking for only price as a determinant that price will soon increase everywhere. The two most important things in cosmetic injections is real product and an excellent, ethical injector. The buyer should beware.
