I have heard that if you take antibiotics while you have botox, the botox will fade fast, I just got juvederm and botox a week ago and now I have a toothache, I don't want to lose the effects I just paid for.... what can I do? The antibiotic is CEPHALEXIN 500 mg. I took an antibiotic when I had dysport and the effects faded but I was in month 3 so that could be why?

Answer: No, antibiotics should not interfere with your Botox and Juvederm results.
After one day it is very possible that you have some tightness and soreness in the area. You had more than the usual amount of units placed in that area. For the best cosmetic advice please consult a board certified dermatologist with expertise in cosmetic injections. Best, Dr. Green
You should definitely check with your treating physician since there are some vasculitis diseases that make you contraindicated to these cosmetic procedures. Please consult an expert. Best, Dr. Green
