Arnold R. Oppenheim, MD answers: How long after Botox can full effects be seen?

I was told that after receiving Botox, you have to wait at least 2 to 3 days just to start seeing any effects. Is this true?

   That would be the average time. I have had patients tell me that the Botox took its affect the next day. I have also seen it ( in myself and others, take as long as two weeks. Be patient. 

Helpful?
