Answer: Botox and bruising Bruising after Botox can occur. Most of the time it is visible the same day or the very next day. In some cases, however, it may become visible several days later. A bruise occurs when blood leaks out of a traumatized blood vessel. It could be that with strenuous activity or rubbing or due to blood thinners that an injured blood vessel dislodges a clot and causes some blood to leak into the tissue and thus cause a visible bruise (e.g. heavy exercise a few days later may results in a bruise). The bruise typically dissipates within a week or two.

Answer: How Long Does Bruising Last After Botox? In the majority of cases, any side effects are temporary and limited to where Botox was injected. Bruising can take anywhere from a couple days to a few weeks to completely resolve. If you have concerns about side effects, follow up with your injector

Answer: Bruising from Botox is Rare
Hi Deb,
Most patients do not bruise at all after Botox injections. Patients are told to have their injections at least one week before an affair or important photo occaision in the rare event of a bruise. If there is a bruise, it usually resolves within 5 to 7 days.
Good luck and be well.
