Is Botox before Facelift consultation and surgery okay?

Brisa del Mar
I receive about 80 units of Botox injections into my forehead and near my eyes from a neurologist every 3 months due to migraine headaches. I am planning on getting a forehead lift and face/neck lift. Is it important to have the Botox out of my system for the consults? What about the surgery? What do you tell your patients and why? I am worried that discontinuation of the Botox will make my headaches come back. Thank You!
