Thanks much for reaching out. I tell my patients to stay out of extreme heat for 24 hours after Botox. Is it deactivates the medication. In regards to extreme cold I would probably avoid that for 24 hours as well. I hope that helps :-)
There is a small risk that the effectiveness of the neuromodulator (Botox) may be diminished so do not recommend it
I have been using Botox in my practice for over 10 years -- and I have never seen any adverse outcomes from something like a facial after Botox treatment either for medical or cosmetic uses. You should discuss this with your doctor, whom I hope is a board-certified MD with training in Oculofacial Plastic Surgery or Facial Plastic Surgery. I'd probably advise at least waiting 24 hours -- but you can have whatever facial you'd like. There are no scientific reasons whatsoever that your Botox will be affected 24 hours after your treatment. Best of luck.Damon B. Chandler, MDHarvard-Penn Trained Oculofacial Plastic Surgeon
After 24 hours you should be able to get a facial and any other aesthetic procedures. A cryofacial is a relatively superficial treatment so it should have no bearing with the effects of botox.
I would avoid having a facial for one week after treatment as the results of Botox are not apparent for that period of time.
Any procedure that involves pressure on the face should be avoided at least 24-48 hours after Botox
Yes! Have no hesitation in having a facial one day after your Botox treatment. Please make sure your Esthetician has experience with cryogenic procedures.
you may absolutely have whatever facial you'd like to have. There should be no issues arising. Good luck from New York City
Thank you for your question.Congratulations on getting Botox.It takes up to two weeks for Botox to take full effect. It is not advisable to do any facials, Hydrafacial, cryofacial, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, laser and etc. within first two weeks.This is the advice I give to all my patients.Hope this was helpful.Dr. Oleg Vinson
The consensus is weighted towards fillers delivered by catheter to the orbital rim to create or restore volume. This will camouflage the visible bone or "A" deformity. I would recommend the type filler with less water traits such as Restylane silk or Boletero. Please consult with someone...
For Botox, I mix each 100 unit bottle with 2 ml of saline so each of my injection doses is 2.5 units. I like to start with 2.5 units per side. I get a better result when the Botox is injected at the insertion point of the muscle near the corner of the mouth. If a second injection is required, I...
Botox will not impact your white blood count or iron levels. I recommend following up with your Doctor to determine cause and if necessary, treatment. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer
9 units of Botox is about half the normal dose for that area. I have many patients that do low doses of Botox. They understand that it will not last as long but like to have some movement of the muscles. Given your age this sounds appropriate.
