I had Botox injections Thursday on my forehead, between the eyebrows.. That day I saw the first of the result and was excited about the possible results in the upcoming days. Today is Saturday and now the deep creases are back as if the effects are wearing off, not increasing.
Answer: Why would the effects of Botox seem to be wearing off after 2 days, when I have followed all the post procedures exactly? 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.

Answer: Botox and how long does it take to see results. Typically Botox does not take e effect for 5-7 days. You may have felt that your Botox was working after the injection (within the first 2 days) due to a small amount of swelling from the actual injection itself. GIve it a little more time to take full effect (10 days to 14 days). Follow back up with your provider if more units are needed for the best correction. Thank you for your question.

Answer: Why would the effects of Botox seem to be wearing off after 2 days, when I have followed all the post procedures exactly? You likely had a small amount of swelling 1-2 days post injection and no effect of the Botox. It will take 3-7 days to see the full effect of your Botox. If not, please post a followup question but I am sure by now you're seeing the look you desired. Best of luck.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Botox results Dear Teresa,it is far too early to see the final outcome yet. Botox takes between 3 to 14 days to show full result. Please wait up to 14 days from the date of treatment and see your practitioner if you are still unhappy with the result.
