Botox to massters a month before chin/neck liposuction?

July 15, 2017
Asked By:Peony20 in Illinois, IL

Hello, I'm wondering if it is possible to get botox injected to the masseter muscles a month prior to getting liposuction to the chin/neck. I am an ideal BMI however I carry a good amount of "genetic fat" in my face/neck :( I am already scheduled to have liposuction of the chin/neck area in about a month, however I was wondering if I get botox to the masseters in the next week or so, if that would affect my liposuction? Thank you!
