I had Botox injections 2 days ago. I wasn't given post-care instructions. Immediately after the treatment (half an hour after) I had a massage, where I lay down for 2 hours. My face was NOT massaged. Two days later, I still have bumps (like mosquito bites) in each of the places where Botox was injected into my forehead. I now realize that some doctors recommend their patients not to lie down for 6 hours after. Will this effect go away soon? Did I do something wrong?
No, I do not think you did anything wrong. Botox should be injected directly into the muscles involved; is hard to imagine (even theoretically) that position change after the treatment will make a difference. I doubt that you will see any difference in the efficacy of the treatment you have received.
Best wishes.
I just had botox yesterday morning and I was wondering is it ok to go running tomorrow afternoon? is it ok if my forehead sweats?
Thank you for the question.
It should be no problem for you to go running after the Botox treatment. Best wishes.
I'm 19 years old and have developed what I believe is called "pebble chin". When I smile my chin has little bumps and lumps on it and it makes my chin look deformed. I thought it was from falling on chin a few years back and getting stiches causing my chin to become bumpy, but it could be from the fact that I have TMJ and 'clench' my jaw often? I'm not sure. Is botox the best solution and what would the cost be approximately? Thanks! A picture wouldn't really help because the flash.
Your pebbly chin may represent a hyperactive mentalis muscle which has nothing to do with a previous fall. If that is the case, a few units of Botox or any comperable neurotoxin would work just fine. 4-8 units are all that you would need at a cost of $100-200. See your dermatologic surgeon or cosmetic surgeon to get a proper diagnosis and treatment.
