Can You Have Botox Straight After Microdermabrasion?

Hi I'm booked in for microdermabrasion facial and was wondering how long after can you have botox or is it best to have botox before microdermabrasion.

A: Botox After Microdermabrasion

There should be no problem getting Botox injections immediately after microdermabrasion.  The reverse, however, is NOT safe.  After injections, any procedure that creates pressure on areas treated with Botox can cause the medication to disperse, leading to unwanted muscle paralysis.

Botox is Limiting my Smile, Do I Have Options?

I had botox between my eyes (frown lines) and crows feet two days ago. First timer. Between the eyes looks great and has given me a slight brow lift. But the crows feet injections are limiting my smile. My cheeks bulge & bunch when I smile and my smile seems to "stop" now without extending as broadly as before. Natural contour below my cheeks is gone w/ flat affect to the outer 1/3 of my face. While the crows feet are gone, so is my nice big and broad smile. Doesn't look like me. Suggestions?

A: Botox and Smile

The limitation in your ability to smile was most likely caused by the crow's feet injections.  There is a muscle just below the muscles that surround your eye called the zygomaticus.  If botox is injected or migrates into this muscle it creates a problem elevating the corners of the mouth.  This effect will eventually wear off, and exercising your smile muscles may expedite this.  If you want to have your crows feet treated in the future, make sure the injector stays clear of the lower portion of the squint muscles.

What is the Dosage of Botox for Use to Treat Migraines?

Where is the botox injected, when it is used to treat migraines?

A: Botox For Migraines

Botox can be a very effective treatment for migraines, and is now approved by the FDA  for this indication.  Several studies have been published on this topic.  The protocol that is referenced most frequently utilized up to 195 units injected to the forehead, temples, posterior scalp, posterior neck, and trapezius muscles.  In my personal experience, most patients respond to a much smaller dose depending on the distribution of the actual pain.
