Got Botox yesterday. The doctor injected 20 units to the glabella and surrounding upper eyebrows. Once he was finished, he applied moderate/gentle pressure with an icepack. He then asked his nurse to enter and hold the ice pack for him for about 10 minutes while he left the room. The nurse's pressure wasn't really gentle, though not too harsh either. Moderate, comparable to how one would typically apply ice pressure on a wound. I'm wondering if this would it jeopardize the results of my Botox?
