Botox: Q&A

How Tight Should I Wear my Ponytail Once Receiving Botox in the Forehead? I Wear a Ponytail Daily.
I wear my hair pulled back and in a ponytail daily. I am interested in getting Botox in my forehead. My question is.. By pulling my hair back would the muscles in my forehead (freeze) or be paralyzed in place according to the tension or the tightness my ponytail style... or would it paralyzed the muscles in their natural place. How tight should I wear my ponytail once receiving the Botox? What happens to the muscles with a tight ponytail?? I hope I have asked the question clearly and correctly.

Pony tail following botox
Botox should not affect how you wear your pony tail. It might give you more confidence to wear a pony tail to show off your smooth forehead. Beware however, that persistent wearing of tight pony tails could in the long run cause loss of hair in the frontal and side fringes. A condition called traction alopecia. This would have no connection to your use of botox.

Wearing pony tail in any fashion is not a problem after botox in the forehead
You needn't be concerned about the tightness of the forehead from wearing a pony tail or the direction of the pulling after Botox treatment in the forehead. The doctor will inject the botox to the correct muscle areas and the botox will bind to the correct sites no matter how you wear your hairstyle.

I agree that the pony tail will have no effect on the BOTOX.

It is interesting that I have a 24 year old patient who has been daily wearing a pony tail since she was a child. The interesting thing is that when she does not wear the ponytail she looks very different than when she does wear it. It appears that over time she has stretched the soft tissues of the upper face and the ponytail essentially pulls these tissues back like some kind of forehead lift.

How to wear hair after Botox
It should not matter how you wear your hair after having a botox treatment. Absolutely nothing happens with the forehead muscles while wearing a ponytail. In fact, now that you have had Botox and your forehead lines have disappeared, wear your hair back in a ponytail to show off your new wrinkle free skin!

No, it doesn't work that way. Wear your hair pulled back as much as you want. It won't effect the Botox in any way, shape or form.

Pony-tails after BOTOX
Wearing your hair in a pony-tail may make you more beautiful. It will, thankfully, have no effect on your BOTOX treatments. Keep on BOTOXing!

Ponytail after Botox
Greetings~
Fortunately or unfortunately, Botox doesn't freeze or paralyze muscles in place, so your hair style, attempting to make certain faces or not make them, or treatments that may make the skin more taught, will have no effect on its results. Botox simply relaxes the muscles, or groups of muscles, that are injected. So if it's your forehead that you are interested in smoothing, you will notice the muscles relax and have less movement within a few days to a...

It will make no difference how you wear your hair. Getting Botox is not like pouring cement and needing to keep it in place until it sets. Botox blocks muscles from contracting by temporarily disconnecting the nerve. You should think of it as a constant state of relaxation.

Your Hair style Does Not Effect Your Botox Treatment
How you choose to wear your hair has no effect on the (frontalis) muscles in your forehead. Nor does it have any effect on the results of a botulinum toxin treatment. The amount of relaxation you experience following treatment with a botulinum toxin is directly related to the number of units you receive and where those units are placed across the forehead. So go ahead and wear your hair however you would like.

Botox and hairstyles
I would imagine that you don't pull your hair back so tightly that it gives you a headache or causes you any pain. So it's not necessary to alter how you wear your hair in any way. You can wear it in a ponytail on the day of your treatment, or any day after. It will have no effect.

Botox and a ponytail
Wearing your hair in a ponytail will have no effect on your Botox treatment.
As an aside, repeatedly wearing tight ponytails can damage your hair at the front of your hairline. You should loosen up your ponytail to prevent permanent hair loss.
