7 Tips After You Have Botox®

So, you bit the bullet and just had your first Botox® treatment. Now what?

No doubt you are excited to see the results and welcome your new youthful face! But hold your horses, here are a few tips on what to expect and handy tips on what not to do once you have had the treatment.

  1. Directly after treatment, you should stay upright for 4 hours, to allow the substance to settle in the areas you want it to.
  2. Avoid touching, rubbing and applying make-up to the treated areas for 4 hours.
  3. Avoid extreme heat for up to 1-week post-treatment such as saunas and steam rooms.
  4. Avoid alcohol and heavy exercise for 24 hours.
  5. Stay out of sunlight/UV radiation until redness and swelling have resolved.
  6. You may find it helpful to apply iced gauze to the treated area, especially if you have developed some swelling/bruising.
  7. Avoid wearing anything tight around your head such as a headband as this can be quite constrictive.

Remember, Botox® can start working from 3-4 days, but will take 10-14 days to reach full effect.

If you experience any serious side effects or complications, please contact the UNNDOO Medical Team immediately.
