PODtox® uses innovative injection techniques developed with patient safety and wellbeing as a primary focus.
PODtox® is a treatment involving injections of Botulinum Toxin, a well-established medical treatment used worldwide. It can be used to successfully treat conditions including hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), plantar fasciitis, Morton’s neuroma, tinea pedis (athlete’s foot), and muscle tightness affecting the calf.
PODtox® is a treatment involving injections of Botulinum Toxin. Botulinum toxin is a naturally occurring protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. When purified and manufactured for medical use, as is the case with many licensed medicines such as penicillin, botulinum toxin has established clinical applications across a range of medical settings.
All botulinum toxins are prescription-only medicines (POMs) and may only be prescribed by an appropriately qualified prescriber. This may include a podiatrist or another registered medical practitioner with the relevant prescribing authority. Practitioners must ensure they practise within their professional scope and comply with all regulatory and prescribing requirements.
Botulinum toxin works by temporarily blocking the transmission of chemical signals between nerves and muscles or sweat glands. This causes the treated muscles or glands to enter a relaxed or inactive state for a period typically lasting 3–6 months.
The effect may result in either a partial reduction or a more complete reduction in muscle activity or sweat production, depending on the dose administered and the precise placement of the product. Treatment can be tailored to suit individual clinical needs.
Expected treatment outcomes, as well as whether those outcomes are appropriate and achievable, will be discussed during the consultation process. All of which is covered as part of your training course.
