How long does Botox last?

Botox is indicated to last up to 12 weeks (about 3 months). Results vary depending on factors such as your metabolism, treatment area, dosage, and muscle activity. Most clients begin to notice results within 3 to 7 days, with full results visible around 2 weeks after treatment.

How often can I get Botox treatments?

Botox treatments can be safely repeated every 12 weeks (about every 3 months), once the effects begin to fade. Many clients choose to schedule regular maintenance appointments to maintain a smooth, refreshed look year-round. Your provider will recommend a schedule based on your individual needs and treatment goals.

Can I get Botox if I’m pregnant or breastfeeding?

No. Botox is not recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. There isn’t enough research to confirm its safety for pregnant or nursing women, so it’s best to wait until after pregnancy and breastfeeding are complete before receiving treatment. Always consult with your healthcare provider before scheduling any cosmetic procedure.

When will I see results after getting Botox?

You’ll typically start to see noticeable results within 3 to 7 days after treatment. The full effect usually develops around 10 to 14 days. Results appear gradually as the treated muscles relax, smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles for a refreshed, natural look.

What should I avoid after getting Botox?

For best results, follow these aftercare guidelines: Avoid rubbing or massaging the treated area for at least 24 hours. Stay upright for 4–6 hours after treatment (avoid lying down or bending over excessively). Skip strenuous exercise, saunas, and hot tubs for 24 hours. Avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medications (like aspirin or ibuprofen) unless prescribed. Do not get facials or skin treatments near the injection sites for a few days. Following these steps helps the Botox settle properly and reduces the risk of bruising or migration.
