I’m 35 and planning to get botox soon. I am a little unclear on the aftercare and want to make sure I do everything right because I’m a little nervous. I usually take a hot shower every night before bed for my anxiety and bc I work in the morning. Would this be ok to do? Is it true you can’t bend over at all, like even just to tie your shoe? Lastly, I practice intermittent fasting. Would this be something I could continue doing in the days following the procedure?

Answer: Botox post treatment Protocols will vary by provider. It should be fine for you to take your shower as usual and you can certainly bend over to tie your shoe. We do recommend that you avoid exercise until the day after your treatment. The intermittent fasting is fine for you to continue before, during, and after your treatment. to minimize risk of bruising we advise our patients to avoid aspirin, NSAIDs, Vitamin E and Fish Oil supplements prior to treatment. I encourage you to discuss your concerns with your injector.

Answer: Botox aftercare Each physician may have their own instructions for aftercare following a Botox treatment. In my opinion, it would not be a problem to take a hot shower, fast, or bend over to tie your shoes after Botox. The particular physician treating you may feel differently, so I would check with the office that you would be going to.
