I have heard that you should wait 6 weeks after a GA to have Botox treatment and I am not sure if this is true and if so why?
Answer: Botox 1 week post non facial surgery. OK?
To answer your question, yes. It should be OK to inject Botox into the non operated areas of your face a week after surgery. Please see an experienced and well trained injector.

Answer: Is BOTOX safe after general anesthesia?
Yes, botulinum toxin injections are safe immediately after anesthesia. I do not like to use it in the operating room, as it does not seem to me to last as long. I feel it is due to the fact that the patient isn't moving the muscles, which we know to be a factor in picking up the BOTOX.

Answer: Botox after general anesthesia is safe.
I have used Botox during anesthesia (after carefully marking the active muscles pre-operatively), and see no medical reason you cannot have Botox during or after anesthesia, so long as the effects of anesthesia have completely worn off!
