Will sleeping with heated blanket overnight affect Botox? (photo)

Sleeping with heated  or not heated blanked at least 4 hours after botox injection may not affect the Botox treatment.Patients are recommended not to lie flat for the next 4 hours following botox injections to prevent migration of the botox that could result in lazy upper eyelid.Physical exercise activities on the same day after botox injections are not recommended since they could cause bruising at the injection site. Heated pads or heated blankets are not recommended to be used right after botox injection because of the same reason, however, if used at least 4 hours after the injection they should not cause any bruising. 

Thank you for your question Weiwei88. Botox is a purified protein used to address wrinkles associated with facial expression. For my patients I recommend the following aftercare instructions after a Botox treatment: Please avoid heat exposure, alcohol consumption, and strenuous exercise for 24 hours after a treatment and avoid lying flat for 4 hours after a treatment. I would advise my patients  SHOW MORE to avoid any heating pads on the skin for 24 hours. Please consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!
