Botox is not harmful to the body. It performs a specific purpose and will not affect your surgery.

	Have some fun with all of this and enjoy your transformation!

You can have facial botox before, during or after your breast surgery. It is safe to have them done at the same time if you wish.

John J. Corey, MD · Answer

There is no problem having Botox before or after surgery and in fact, I have even injected it at the time of surgery!!!!!

Armando Soto, MD, FACS · Answer

Hi there-

	There should not be any reason that having a Botox treatment would complicate or make more difficult a successful breast procedure.

	Good Luck!

Christopher V. Pelletiere, MD · Answer

There should be no issuse with having Botox prior to any sort of breast or body surgery. The Botox will not interfere with anything, nor will the surgery change the way the Botox works, where it works, or how long it will last.

Ronald Friedman, MD · Answer

I have injected Botox before, during, and after breast surgery in a large number of women.  The two procedures are completely unrelated and can be mixed and matched without any problems.

Tom J. Pousti, MD · Answer

Thank you for the question.

	There is no reason that you cannot have the Botox treatment before your procedure.

	Best wishes.

Randy Proffitt, MD · Answer

Yes, it is ok.  Botox in standard doses only causes a local effect.  Having surgery a week later will not interfere.

Robert L. Kraft, MD, FACS · Answer

There is no contraindication to having Botox either the week before surgery or shortly afterwards.  Best of luck with both procedures!

Marcus L. Peterson, MD · Answer

You can do Botox at any time before or after surgery as long as the Botox is not in the same area as the surgery.

	Best Wishes
