Does either doxycycline and levofloxacin affect previously injected Sculptra or Botox treatments?

May 16, 2018
Asked By:lib12 in Pflugerville, TX

I had Botox 3 weeks ago (forehead, glabella and brow lift) Since then I have been diagnosed with cellulitis on my ear lobe. Neither Augmentin or doxycycline was working alone, so now I am on both doxycycline and levofloxacin together and this is working. My question is will either of these medications interact with my cosmetic treatments . I read muscle weakness is a concern with Levaquin and should I ask the EMT to change this one to prevent eyelid drooping?

You don’t say how long ago your injections were, but in general pain and a loss of your natural “arch” is not unusual. The pain should leave in a few days, but the arch may take a few months to come back.

Neil Modi, MBBS says:

With lubrication it is important to do this regularly. The thicker the preparation, the longer it will last. So at the thinner end, you have hypromellose, systane etc. You can buy a gel (eg clinics), which is intermediate and a paraffin based ointment (eg lacrilube, simple eye ointment)...
