Should botox be injected slowly or quickly?

Thanks for your question. The speed of the injection will have no effect on the result of your Botox. The skill and experience of the injector is more relevant. 

Thank you for your question.  Your result does not depend on how fast is the Botox in injected.  Your results will depend on the skill of your injector.  Best Wishes

Slow injection hurts less and  usually causes less bruising. Everyone has a different technique though and providers can get good results with many different styles

Thank you for the question. The speed of needle insertion and injection of Botox will not effect the outcome. The most important factors are the skill and experience of the injector and the number of units being used. Make sure to go to an expert injector. Good luck. 

I appreciate your question.There is no difference on speed of injections.  More important is skill of the injector.  Slower injections usually means less bruising.  The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.best of luck!Dr Schwartz

There is no different in quick versus slow injections with botox.  I have found slower usually means less bruising (this is true with fillers) if it were to occur.  Best, Dr. Emer.

The speed of the injection is probably not as important as the location and the dose.  I guess it's kind of the "do you jump in the cold pool or slowly ease yourself in?" type of a question.  As long as your speed is not excessive in that you don't know how much botox you are injecting and you get sloppy, then I try to inject as quickly as possible.  While not painful, I'm sure most patients want to get through the experience and not lay there for 10 minutes with a needle in their skin.     

Botox needs to be injected in the proper place, in the proper dose and without causing you undue discomfort. Bruising can occur following Botox injections but should occur very infrequently in the hands of an experienced injector. I hope this information is helpful for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

The speed in which Botox is injected has no bearing on its effect. Sometimes the skill level of the injector varies, as well as their technique. Finding a certified clinic with an experienced injector is important for your results, as well as the continuity of your treatments. Best Regards

The speed at which Botox is injected should not make a significant difference as the volume injected is small.  The more important detail is placing the Botox in the correct place and with the correct amount.
