Can a high protein intake of 70-100g daily effect botox results?

Question

I can’t seem to find any research on this subject. I had jaw botox and wondering if a high protein intake of 70-100g daily might affect my botox results or cause it to last shorter than usual. Types of proteins are all from fish, eggs and casein protein so I have not been using my jaw muscles at all since the start of the treatment and not even chewing with my back teeth anymore as I’ve almost lost all of my jaw strength.

Consult with your physician on this matter. A protein intake from nutritional diet should not impact. See an expert. -Dr. Emer

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

Your high protein diet should not impact how long your Botox results last,  The effects will diminish gradually over approximately 3 to 4 months.  See an experienced injector for your treatment.

Thank you for sharing your question, I do not believe that protein intake has any affect on the results of Botox. See a facial  specialist for your treatment. Good luck!

Diet does not affect the longevity of Botox, but strenuous physical activity may. We have anecdotally observed that athletes may require higher doses of Botox for a desired result compared to non-athletes. Hope this helps. Dr Joseph

Thank you for your question. I do not believe your diet will affect longevity of your Botox results. The effect from Botox will last approximately 3 months. Please see an experienced injector for best results. Take care!
