Does the Botox come out while I sweat?

Question

I'm already starting to feel my eyebrows being heavy . I'm scared as I'm flying within 2 days and the botox doctor won't be around this week . Does the botox. Come out while I sweated ? Do you think it has spread in other areas ? Will my eye brows drop ? How can I kill the botox affect quicker ? Go in the sun and heat ? I'm scared that some of my face could get paralised.or my eye brows will drop after yesterday's performance

I would recommend waiting for 1-2 weeks after your treatment to assess the final results.  Botox typically does not come out with sweating.  I do, however, recommend to my patients to hold for 24 hours any activities that may make you sweat or hot such as exercise, saunas, hot baths, alcohol.

Thank you for your question. Botox is not excreted in sweat. It is possible for the Botox to move to different areas. Precautions such as, no laying down for 3 hours after treatment are advised to stop the movement of Botox into a muscle it is not intended for. Wait an entire 2 weeks for the Botox to settle. Have a wonderful day.

Thank you for your question.  In short, no you cannot sweat out Botox nor can you "kill the Botox" effect.  You have to wait about three months for the effects to wear off.All the best,Dr. ResultsMiami, FL

This sounds like it's your first time at the rodeo.I would suggest you relax and wait a few days to see what the effects of the Botox are.The simple answer is that you cannot sweat Botox out nor shorten its effective time with sweating.I get Botox myself and understand the "heavy" feeling you are experiencing.  You'll get used to it and I hope you like the results.

Botox works quickly and actually then disappears and the rest is due to its action. You will not sweat it out and there is no need to try to get it out or decrease it because it is not really there--only its effects are
