I had botox about 2-3 weeks ago for forehead lines/glabella area and am curious if wearing a full face motorcycle helmet that is fairly tight across the head will affect botox placement? I obviously wound not wear the helmet the first week after receiving the injections, but am curious for future rides if I should be concerned? Thank you so much.
