Can I Have Botox Treatment a Week After Non Facial Surgery and a General Anaesthetic?

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.

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.

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!

You are safe to get a Botox treatment at any time.I know of no issues between Botox and general anesthesia.  In fact, I have given patient's Botox treatments while they were under general anesthesia for facial cosmetic surgery.

I concur with my colleagues here.  FDA approved Allergan Botox cosmetic is safe to administer after general anesthesia.  Best of luck!
