At Rx Rejuvenate, many clients considering Botox often ask: “How should I prepare for my session?” and “What should I do afterwards for the best results?” Proper preparation and aftercare are just as important as the treatment itself. Here’s a complete guide.
Understanding Botox: A Quick Overview
Botox (Botulinum Toxin) works by temporarily relaxing overactive facial muscles that cause wrinkles. It’s most commonly used for:
- 
Frown lines between the brows 
- 
Crow’s feet around the eyes 
- 
Forehead lines 
- 
Neck bands 
Results typically last 3–6 months, depending on lifestyle and individual factors.
Pre-Treatment Guidelines: Preparing for Your Botox Session
1. Schedule Smartly
- 
Book your Botox at least 2 weeks before any major event to allow results to settle naturally. 
- 
Avoid booking it right before vacations or occasions where you’ll be exposed to excessive sun or alcohol. 
2. Avoid Blood Thinners
- 
Stop taking aspirin, ibuprofen, vitamin E, omega-3 supplements, and alcohol at least 3–5 days before treatment, unless prescribed for a medical condition. 
- 
These substances increase the risk of bruising. 
3. Pause Certain Skincare Products
- 
Retinoids, glycolic acid, and strong exfoliants can make skin more sensitive.  
- 
Discontinue them 24–48 hours before treatment. 
4. Stay Hydrated & Well-Rested
- 
Good hydration and adequate sleep improve skin health and enhance results. 
5. Come With Clean Skin
- 
Arrive with no makeup, creams, or oils on your face to minimise the risk of infection. 
6. Discuss Medical History
- 
Inform your provider if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have any neurological conditions, or are on specific medications. 
What to Expect During the Session
- 
The procedure takes about 15–30 minutes. 
- 
Small, fine needles are used, and discomfort is minimal. 
- 
There is no downtime—you can return to most daily activities immediately. 
Post-Treatment Guidelines: Ensuring the Best Results
1. Avoid Touching or Rubbing the Area
- 
Don’t massage, rub, or apply pressure for 24 hours to prevent the Botox from spreading. 
2. Stay Upright for a Few Hours
- 
Avoid lying down or bending over excessively for at least 4 hours after injections. 
3. Skip Intense Workouts
- 
No heavy exercise, sauna sessions, or hot yoga for 24 hours to reduce bruising and swelling. 
4. Avoid Alcohol & Blood Thinners
- 
For the first day post-treatment, skip alcohol and any unnecessary blood-thinning medications. 
5. Don’t Apply Makeup Immediately
- 
Wait at least 6–12 hours before applying makeup on the treated areas to reduce infection risk. 
6. Mild Side Effects Are Normal
- 
Temporary redness, swelling, or small bumps at injection sites usually subside within hours. 
- 
Bruising, if any, fades in a few days. 
7. Be Patient With Results
- 
Initial improvements can be seen within 3–5 days, with full results in about 2 weeks. 
Long-Term Care and Maintenance
- 
Schedule follow-up treatments every 3–6 months to maintain results. 
- 
Combine Botox with other treatments like dermal fillers, microneedling, or chemical peels for holistic rejuvenation. 
- 
Daily sunscreen use is essential to prevent new wrinkles and protect your investment.
