Can I Have a Full/half Facial 11 Days After Botox?

There shouldn't be any reason not to have a facial one day after having Botox, Dysport or Xeomin for wrinkles. It is a common suggestion not to undergo any manipulation for four hours after Botox. It would be prudent to wait then for one full day after Botox before having a facial, but that is it. Enjoy your experience.

Hi Phoenix.  We normally recommend that a patient refrain from messaging the injection area for at least 4 hours after Botox injections.  11 days is way more time than you need to ensure that you will not experience any movement of the injected product.  Feel free to do whatever facials you desire after this much time has passed.

11 days after a BOTOX treatment is a life time.  Your facial will have absolutely no bearing on your BOTOX treatment.  This product is in and is good.  We generally advise people to wait a few days before getting a facial and that is possibly unnecessarily restrictive.

Your botox injects should start working in 3 days and will have its full effect in 10 days and therefore a facial massage will be safe for you to have performed at 11 days.  Avoid aggressive massage or rubbing any area where botox or dysport was injected for about 3 days. Gentle facial cleansing is ok.

you can do anything you want...definitely not a problem at 1 day or more after treatment...and if you only waited a few hours, probably no significant issue either...there's a mystique about waiting, but no real scientific information to back up all of those ideas floating around in computerland...

There is no problem having a facial 24hrs after a Botox injection so you have nothing to worry about. Generally speaking, within 24hrs, the Botox is bound to the necessary receptors and nothing you do will really affect it. Dr. Benjamin Barankin, Toronto Dermatology Centre. 

You should wait 4 hours after Botox injections before manipulating any of the treated areas.  As long as you do not have a bruise which would make a facial uncomfortable,  it is safe to have a facial 1 day after your Botox treatment.

There is no problem getting a facial 11 days after Botox injections.  I would definitley caution you against receiving a facial or massaging your face on the same day of your Botox injections and if you want to be very cautious for one addtional day but otherwise there is no concern 11 days later. 

It is completely fine to have a full face facial 11 days after your Botox or Dysport treatment.  We would recommend that you avoid a facial treatment of any sort the day of your injection and  typically avoid manipuation for 24 hours.  The next day or so pateints are able to resume their regular normal activity and if having a facial is on your schedule, go ahead....enjoy!!

Botox is taken up by the target muscle nerve endings very quickly and it certainly should be no problem to have a facial after 11 days.  With certain fillers, such as Radiesse, I recommend waiting two weeks before having a facial or even dental work so that the results don't get altered by the manipulation.
