I got a Covid booster 3 days after botox (doctor said it’d be fine). But my botox only partially kicked in (stopping after the booster on day 3) & is wearing off rapidly, less than a month after it was administered. Does this mean I’ve developed antibodies to botox? And if this was caused by having the vaccine so soon after botox, would waiting a few months before getting more botox help? Could immunity to botox wane after time if it was a result of the 2 being given so close together?
