Hello, I am getting breast implants in 2 weeks. I would really like to do Botox for this deep vertical line in between my brows. That's the only place I want it, and I'm thinking of asking my surgeon if she can do it while I am in surgery. Is this a feasible scenario? If it is, how long can I expect botox to last? I am a complete newbie at all of this - I've never had surgery or any kind of injectable.

Answer: Botox During Operation Thank you for the detailed question. I have done Botox for patients in the OR during a procedure before, however it is a treatment that needs to be repeated every 3-6 months. We do offer nitrous oxide for patients that are very anxious with injectables. I recommend contacting your board-certified plastic surgeon and discussing adding Botox to your surgery. At our practice we also provide consults via FaceTime or Skype for patients who live outside of NY. For more information, please visit our webpage.

Answer: Botox and Breast Augmentation Botox® Cosmetic injections can be done while in surgery, however planned injection sites should be marked prior to anesthesia with the patient in the upright position and while he/she is animating their facial muscles. I recommend that the treated area not be rubbed or manipulated immediately after Botox® Cosmetic injections; I also recommend that you do not lean/bend over for the first few hours post-injection.

Answer: Botox Hi momto4tx, thank you for your question. You can absolutely request Botox to be done at the time of surgery. Botox typically lasts somewhere between 3-4 months and can take up to about 2 weeks to see it's full results. Consult with your surgeon before surgery to be evaluated to make sure you are a proper candidate for Botox. Good luck with your upcoming procedure.
