Do you get a face cream with Botox? Is there an aftercare treatment that one should use to keep the wrinkles from returning?
Answer: Botox face cream - Nope and yes There are not face creams with Botox, but there are many out there that claim to be as effective as Botox. After your Botox treatment the best way to protect your investment is by avoiding sun damage, wearing sun block, and using a good facial cleanser, moisturizer, and exfoliant.

Answer: How to make Botox last longer. Botox is a toxin that has many benefits including cosmetic and medical uses. You can maximize your results by avoiding direct sunlight, tanning beds, face scrubs, face masks, and abrasive face washes or cleansers for at least a week after your treatment. Getting Botox treatments regularly is also a great idea. That way, your muscles will get weaker over time and the effects of Botox will last longer. It"s been also suggested that taking zinc contributes to Botox efficiency and delays deep lines forming for longer periods. Good luck.

Answer: Face cream after Botox A face cream is not a standard part of Botox injections although a face cream can certainly be used as part of your overall facial care. I advise my patients not to apply a cream around the areas treated with Botox for at least a day after they are injected, to avoid spreading the Botox or causing more bruising. Repeated Botox treatments will be needed to keep the wrinkles from returning.

Answer: Maintaining Botox Results To prolong the effects of Botox, you can eat a healthy diet, follow a good exercise regimen, don't smoke, keep stress levels to a minimum, reduce sugar intake and keep you skin protected from the sun (UV exposure is one of the main causes of wrinkles). There is also a product called TMR from Vivierskin. This serum helps prolong the effects of Botox.

Answer: Re: Face Cream After Botox
Botox works on nerve fibers that connect to muscle tissue. It prevents the nerves from releasing a chemical called acetylcholine which causes the muscles to contract. So there is no need to be particular about the cream you should use after a Botox treatment.
When the Botox wears off after about 3-4 months, the original wrinkles will become apparent. While Botox can help address the muscle contraction that causes these wrinkles to develop, there is another component which is loss of firmness and elasticity in the skin. This is caused by the degeneration of collagen and elastin fibers in the skin.
Treating these wrinkles requires an intervention that helps promote the development of new collagen fibers. Lasers like Fraxel can be helpful for this purpose. Proper sun protection can help prevent wrinkles from becoming deeper and preventing new ones from forming.

Answer: Topical botox not yet
there is no cream that inhibits muscle contraction yet, although one is being studied and it will not have the same potency as injectable Botox. It will be meant as an addition to your injections to maintain your results.
