Can I eat after getting Botox around my mouth and lips?

I advised my patients to "use their treated muscles" for the rest of the day after receiving Botox, to increase Botox penetration into the treated muscles. Therefore, I would encourage eating after Botox treatment around the mouth. This would help to "get the Botox into the muscles". This is also why we discourage people from exercising for 24 to 48 hours after receiving Botox treatment. Avoidance of exercise after Botox treatment decreases the dispersement of Botox from the treated area, making the Botox treatment more effective.

Hello and thank you for your question. Yes you can eat after treatment - after filler (as it usually contains a local anaesthetic) it may be slightly harder to eat for an hour or so after treatment depending on the area treated. Always seek an experienced and qualified practitioner, best wishes

Hi, thanks for your question. You shouldn't have any issues eating after getting Botox around your mouth and lips. Do speak to your provider about any concerns you might have. They may also have their own specific post-injection guidelines.
