AVOID ACTIVE SKINCARE AFTER ANTI-WRINKLE INJECTIONS

It is essential to refrain from using any “active” skincare products for three days following treatment. Active skincare products include those with Alpha or Beta Hydroxy Acids, Retinol (Vitamin A), or Vitamin C. There is a chance that the effects of these products could irritate the tiny injection sites where the aesthetician has administered Botox.
You will be able to return to your normal skincare routine after a few days, but you should treat your skin carefully and avoid vigorous massage for a few more days.
REFRAIN FROM SUN EXPOSURE AFTER YOUR BOTOX TREATMENT

Obviously, it is always important to protect your skin from the sun’s rays, but after Botox, your skin may be very delicate, and any sunburn could inflame the injection sites and cause irritation. Sunlamps should also be avoided for the same reason.
AVOID ACTIVE SKINCARE AFTER ANTI-WRINKLE INJECTIONS
Your Botox practitioner has meticulously chosen the injection sites for optimal results, but you must take a few steps to guarantee that the Botox stays where you want it! After treatment, it is prudent to take a vacation from your normal exercise regimen. Before hitting the gym, you should wait at least 24 hours, or longer if your physician advises it.
Increased blood flow to the face is the reason of the rosy glow that results from a strong workout. This additional flow could promote Botox to spread to undesired locations, diminishing the treatment’s efficacy. Your physician will also urge you to avoid swimming for at least 24 hours. In addition to the physical exertion increasing your blood flow, your goggles and swim cap may create pressure on your face, causing the Botox to shift.
FOR THE BEST ANTI-WRINKLE TREATMENT RESULTS, STAY UPRIGHT.
It’s fantastic to unwind, but please refrain from taking a nap immediately after your Botox treatment. Nothing is more likely to cause Botox to migrate to undesirable regions than lying down, especially on your stomach. Additionally, yoga headstands are a horrible idea! To keep Botox where it’s required, it’s essential to remain upright, even if that means sleeping with cushions under your head. Avoid massaging your face, since this could also disperse the Botox.
HOW TO PREVENT BLEUING AFTER BOTOX TREATMENT
The increased blood flow induced by exercise can also contribute to injection site bruise. Unfortunately, a few celebration drinks after therapy can have the same impact. As a blood thinner, alcohol can promote bruising near treatment sites. Ibuprofen and aspirin-containing medications thin the blood and must be avoided for two weeks following therapy.
WHAT COMES NEXT?
That’s enough stuff you can’t do after receiving Botox! You CAN anticipate a revitalised and refreshed you in only a few weeks. A few simple precautions taken after your procedure will ensure that you are delighted with the results of your anti- wrinkle treatment.
