With everything going on in our lives, it can be easy to forget all of the rules your provider gives you during your Botox or Dysport treatment. Here is a quick checklist for all of the reminders you need regarding making your wrinkles disappear!

Do: 

  • Come every 3-4 months for best results, going far past this window can cause wrinkles to reappear!
  • Wait the full 2 weeks for full results
  • Take your own before and after photos to track the progress, your injectors LOVE to see it!
  • Have realistic expectations. For some people, deep static lines may not fully go away or may take multiple treatments to improve.
  • Trust your injector when they tell you your dose. This is still a medical treatment! We want you to look your best, your dose is individually tailored to your anatomical needs.
  • Expect to bruise, our face has blood vessels everywhere and sometimes bruises are unavoidable. Plan accordingly!

Don’t:

  • Workout after your treatment, wait 24 hours.
  • Drink alcohol or take NSAIDs the night before, as this can increase the risk for bruising.
  • Rub the skin or put makeup on immediately after, keep the area clean and germ-free!
  • Wear a tight hat/ headband or lay flat for 4 hours after your appointment, as it could cause unintentional migration of the Botox.
  • Hesitate to follow up with your provider to make adjustments after it is fully kicked in, but remember after 2-3 weeks it is no longer a “touch up”.
