Botox & Dysport
Pre-Treatment Care
Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before treatment (to reduce bruising risk).
Do not take blood-thinning medications (aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, vitamin E) for 3–5 days prior unless prescribed by your doctor.
Refrain from using Retin-A, glycolic acid, or other strong skin treatments on the injection area 24 hours before.
Notify your provider of any neurological conditions, pregnancy, or breastfeeding.
Arrive with a clean face, free of makeup or heavy skincare.
Post-Treatment Care
Remain upright for 4 hours after injections; avoid lying down or bending excessively.
Do not massage, rub, or press on treated areas for at least 24 hours.
Avoid vigorous exercise, saunas, tanning beds, and hot tubs for 24 hours.
You may experience redness, swelling, or small bumps at injection sites, which typically resolve within a few hours.
Refrain from facials, chemical peels, or microdermabrasion for at least 7 days post-treatment.
Results gradually appear within 3–7 days, with full effect at about 2 weeks.
Botox typically lasts 3–4 months; schedule touch-ups to maintain results.
