Had Botox 2 days ago... I see no difference? Why does it take so long to work?

It takes 1-2 weeks for final results. I recommend waiting at least 2 weeks before assessing whether you need a touch-up. Hope this helps.

Not to worry, It can be 3-5 days before the Botox takes effect, and sometimes longer. In the future, you may want to consider trying Dysport if you need more of an immediate result. It has a slightly faster onset than Botox and lasts a little longer as well. I would recommend visiting your physician who performed the injections regarding any immediate concerns. Thank you and I hope this helps!

Thank you for your question. You are early in your post procedure course. Usually the patient sees the start of the neuromodulators, (Botox Dysport, Xeomin), working at day 4.  The fillers usually see some result early, but some modulation continues.  In our office we have patients come back at 2 weeks for their check on their neuromodulator or filler.  At that point, most of the swelling is usually down, and we have an idea of the result.  This may be delayed if the patient has a bruise.  Often, asymmetry can be improved.  If you desire more volume, most practices would charge you, as they have to pay for the product, etc.  Please make sure your well trained, experienced injector knows your current status.Jeffrey J.

Botox starts to work in a couple of days, peaks at a week (or two at the most), and lasts 3-4 months. It is normal to see little difference as the Botox starts to work. Wait at least a week before being critical of your results.

It can take up to 2 weeks for your treatment to start working - sometimes much sooner. If you don't see any changes at the end of two weeks, re-visit your provider.

It is completely normal to see no difference two days after a Botox treatment.  It can take a week before any effect is seen after the injection.  I would just give it some more time and if you still see no difference after a week, I would contact your treating physician.  

It can take up to two weeks to see the full effects of your Botox treatment. Most patients start to see some of the effect by day 5. The results will fade gradually over three to four months. I've included a video I hope you find helpful.

Hello and thank you for your question
Botox can take up to 14 days to start working for some people. I suggest waiting the 2 weeks, then follow up with your provider. 

Thank you for your question. It is too early to determine your final results as it takes up to 2 weeks to see final results. Follow up with your injector after 2 weeks, if you see no change as you may require a touch up. Best of Luck!

Botox results will not appear instantly. It takes approx. 4-7 days before the effects of wrinkle injections start to work and for you to see a reduction in the lines and wrinkles on the treated area. Generally at 2 week you will see the end result and full effect of the wrinkle injections.
