Will I Get Better Results From Adding Botox 2 Weeks After Initial Injection?

My real opinion is that an expert BOTOX injector should be able to tell you in advance with great precision how much BOTOX you need.  This avoids this appointment after the fact.  However, there is no reason you can't add additional BOTOX after the fact to make up for an inadequate dose of BOTOX from the initial treatment.

Hi Catherine.  In some cases, a Botox touchup a couple weeks after injection is an excellent idea.  Especially with first time patients, we like to take a little more conservative approach and injecting a bit too little is better than injecting too much.

With these first time patients, we always have them come back after 2 weeks to gauge the results and at that time if more is needed, we add it then.  This gives us a more complete picture of how they respond to their injections and hopefully helps us do a better job.  There is no issue with antibodies!
