Botox

MonaLisa Touch

You will see the maximum effects of Botox approximately two weeks after injection. &nbsp;The effect of Botox should usually&nbsp;continue for 3-4 months after the first treatment. &nbsp;As you continue with&nbsp;a regimen&nbsp;of regular injections you may notice that effects last for a longer period of time. &nbsp;Thank you for your question!&nbsp;

First time Botox. When the doctor says it lasts 2-3 months for first time pt, does that mean 2-3 months from injection?

Thank you for your question. &nbsp;I advise avoiding touching or rubbing your face for 4 hours after receiving Botox. &nbsp;After that you should be fine washing and moisturizing your face.&nbsp;&nbsp;Just make sure to&nbsp;avoid applying&nbsp;unusual pressure or massaging your face for a few days. &nbsp;

How do I know if I'm rubbing my forehead too hard after Botox? I'm so worried when I wash my face/moisturize about moving things

It is normal to have some burning or irritation after the MonaLisa Touch procedure. &nbsp;An ice pack immediately after the procedure helps, as well as Neosporin or Aquaphor. &nbsp;If your symptoms continue for more than 24 hours, or worsen, contact your doctor for additional advice.

I just had the Mona Lisa done a few hours ago and now it burns a little when I go to the bathroom, is this normal?

Yes Susan you can absolutely undergo the MonaLisa Touch procedure. &nbsp;You should have a thorough gynecologic examination prior to each of the three treatments to ensure that there are no active lesions. &nbsp;I would also&nbsp;advise suppressive therapy with an antiviral prior to,&nbsp;and for several days after each treatment. &nbsp;Best wishes to you. &nbsp;

I have genital herpes. Can I undergo the MonaLisa Touch procedure as long as the virus is currently dormant?

MonaLisa Touch will likely be a great option for you. &nbsp;You should have a consultation and gynecologic examination prior to having the MonaLisa Touch procedure done. &nbsp;The MonaLisa Touch will help improve the integrity of your vaginal tissue, improving the stretch and lubrication. &nbsp;You will be able to enjoy sex again! &nbsp;Best Wishes to you! &nbsp;
Thank you for your question.

I am 71 years old and would love to have sex again! Would MonaLisa Touch help?

If you do not already have a follow up scheduled with your doctor,&nbsp;you should request one to discuss your experience and concerns. &nbsp;Confirm that it was Botox that was injected and not another product. &nbsp;In my office we schedule a follow up appointment 10-14 days after injection to ensure that our patients are completely satisfied with their results. &nbsp;
Unfortunately, results may vary from one injector to another. &nbsp; You may want to consider using another provider for your next&nbsp;injection if you do not receive satisfaction with your follow up. &nbsp;Thank you for your question.

Why is my experience so different having the same product with a different doctoe?

Based upon the&nbsp;description of your planned activity you will be fine to teach ballet on the same day as you have Botox injections. &nbsp;As long as you are not increasing your heart rate and/or blood pressure too much you will be fine. &nbsp;Thank you for your question! &nbsp;

Can I do Botox the same day if I'm a ballet teacher?

You will be safe to receive Botox safely now since&nbsp;you&nbsp;are not currently pregnant and will not be trying to conceive for 3 months.&nbsp; You might consider using contraception for the next 3 months.&nbsp; Thank you for your question.

I got a d and c procedure. Doctors recommend waiting 3 months before trying to get pregnant again. Is it safe to get botox now?
