Answer: Botox Aftercare Each Plastic Surgeon or Dermatologist may have different post injection protocols. We do not have patients activate or exercise their facial muscles any more. We do not want them to massage the treated areas, or do any vigorous exercise for 24 hours after the injection. The risk is that the Botox could migrate or spread from the injection site, so anything that can reduce the spread for the first 24 hours or so is a good idea.Best!Dr Bengtson

Answer: Laying down after Botox Thank you for this question. I would say that chances are you will be fine to lay down after Botox. However, the reason most people will say don't lay down for four hours afterwards is to minimize the chance of the product spreading. I tend to use a very concentrated form of Botox and Dysport to minimze the change of spreading. I tend to emphasize to may patients to avoid things that will make them hot or sweaty such as strenuous activity, hot tubs, saunas, sun bathing, alcohol, etc.. to minimize the change of bruising.

Answer: Botox after care? Thank you for your question. After Botox, I recommend for all my patients to try not to exercise or bend over for 4 hours after to prevent spreading of the Botox. A gel pack applied to the site after the injection will help with the swelling. Make sure you go to an expert Board Certified Physcian for your injection. best wishes
