Must Know Tips for Botox Aftercare
Botox is a safe procedure which has a minimal impact on usual activity on the day of treatment. Tiny injections are given to relax the action of the muscles which create excessive movement and produce wrinkles on the skin. To allow the Botox to work perfectly in the target muscle and avoid the potency of its side-effects the following precautions are often suggested:
[if !supportLists]● [endif]Do not rub or massage of the injected area for 4 hours after the treatment,
including the facials.
[if !supportLists]● [endif]No strenuous workout for 24 hours after getting botox.
[if !supportLists]● [endif]Keep upright for at least 4 hours, i.e. no lying on your front.
[if !supportLists]● [endif]Avoid wearing a headwear which is tightly fitted across your forehead.
[if !supportLists]● [endif]Avoid having excessive alcohol.
[if !supportLists]● [endif]Avoid getting blood-thinning drugs before the Botox treatment to prevent side-effects.
Exercise
Regular daily activity can be resumed shortly following treatment. Light exercise can be performed after 4 hours, but it is suggested that strenuous activities should be completely avoided for 24 hours. After 4 hours you may perform a light exercise like:
[if !supportLists]● [endif]Walking
[if !supportLists]● [endif]Jogging
[if !supportLists]● [endif]Upright yoga
[if !supportLists]● [endif]Gardening
It is advised that you wait 24 hours before trying any strenuous exercise, such as:
[if !supportLists]● [endif]Cross training
[if !supportLists]● [endif]Weight training
[if !supportLists]● [endif]Yoga (positions where the body is inverted)
[if !supportLists]● [endif]Long distance running
Alcohol
Some practitioners advise limiting alcohol in the first 24 hours and for the day before treatment. This is because alcohol can have thinning effect on the blood much like aspirin, and abstaining can help prevent bruising.
Side Effects:
Bruising — For the majority of persons, the area of injection will not appear any different. For a small minority, some minor amount of bruising may occur.
Bumps — A few minutes after the treatment, small bumps might be visible on the skin. These will disappear very soon.
A headache — True Botox allergies are exceedingly rare. A temporary headache is a most commonly reported symptom following Botox injection, though the number of people who report headaches are minimum compared to the number of total treatments performed.
