Botox + Tattoos - Any concerns about scheduling treatments this close together?

Question

The doctors office has a Wednesday afternoon appointment available to get botox (forehead/eleven), but I'm scheduled to get a forearm tattoo the next afternoon (23 hours later). Any concerns about scheduling this close together or all good? Thanks so much!

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

There should be no problem proceeding with your Botox appointment to treat your forehead and then having a forearm tattoo the next day.  Be sure to discuss  concerns with your injector.

Tommaso Addona, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question.
In my opinion, I do not see any problems with receiving Botox injections to your forehead followed by a forearm tattoo the next day; however, I would recommend speaking with your injector about any concerns you may have.

Lisa Airan, MD · Answer

As long as you are not getting tattooed where the Botox is being injected, then there is no contraindication for having these procedures performed independently of one another. You can have Botox injected the same day as getting your forearm tattoo. Best of luck!

There are no issues in scheduling botox or dysport treatments, and a tattoo session, both in general & especially since different areas are being treated.

Laura Lewman, ND · Answer

There shouldn't be any issue with having Botox and your tattoo appointments that close together as long as you don't mind be poked two days in a row!
