Frequently asked questions
When should I consider bladder Botox?

Effects begin 1-2 weeks after injection, peak at 4-6 weeks, and last on average 6-9 months. When effects wear off, re-injection can be scheduled.
Will I need to catheterize myself?
About 5% of men temporarily need intermittent self-catheterization (CIC) after bladder Botox · usually for a few weeks. We train you on CIC before the injection so you’re prepared if needed.
What are the risks?
Most common: urinary tract infection (5-10%), urinary retention requiring CIC (around 5%), and brief blood in urine. Serious complications are rare in carefully selected patients.
How much does bladder Botox cost in Bangkok?
Cost includes the medication (significant cost), the cystoscopy procedure, and clinic time. Re-injection every 6-9 months is an ongoing cost to consider. Book a consultation for a personalized quote.
