Is there any type of aftercare that I should follow after Daxxify injectables like icing or massaging the area, avoiding certain activities or certain products? What should I expect the healing process to be like?

Answer: Daxxify treatment Daxxify treatments are done in the office. You can expect a similar treatment experience to other neurotoxins. The most common side effects are redness, swelling, and pain at the injection site that tends to subside within a few hours. Certain blood thinning medications and supplements should be avoided prior to treatment to minimize bruising.

Answer: Do not massage. Do not massage, rub or put pressure over the treated area(s) for several hours after treatment as it can cause the product to drift to unwanted areas, such as below the eyebrow where it might temporarily cause a droopy eyelid by weakening the eyelid muscles. Avoid taking aspirin 10 days before treatment and naproxen and ibuprofen for 5 days before treatment as these medications increase the risk of bruising. No aftercare is really necessary and there really is no healing time after treatment. That is why botulinum neurotoxin treatments are often referred to as a "lunchtime" procedure as there usually is no significant recovery period as there is with surgical procedures. Some injectors have recommended patients actively move the treated muscles with facial expressions after treatment though I find that that isn't necessary to get the full effects.
