Botox Precautions image 1

  1. It takes an average of 1 to 2 weeks for Botox to take effect.

  2. After treatment on the forehead and glabella,

you may feel a slight heaviness in the eyes for 1 to 2 weeks,

but it will improve over time.

  1. After forehead treatment,

rarely, the eyebrows may look like Angry Birds,

with both ends lifting up.

Please do not be surprised; if you visit the clinic, it can be corrected.

  1. If you receive treatment on the forehead only,

the forehead wrinkles may improve,

making the glabella wrinkles appear more prominent.

In this case, adding glabella Botox will help improve it.

  1. Temporary bruising may occur after Botox treatment.

In most cases, it naturally disappears within a week, but if the bruising is severe, applying a warm compress or purchasing a bruise cream from a pharmacy and applying it may help.

  1. Please avoid sweaty exercise, saunas, swimming pools, and similar activities for about 1 to 2 weeks.

  2. To prevent side effects after treatment, please avoid alcohol and smoking for about 1 week.

Alcohol and cigarettes can interfere with skin regeneration and may cause inflammation.

  1. For about 1 to 2 weeks after treatment, the treated area may feel stiff and uncomfortable.

★ Botox is usually performed at 4- to 6-month intervals. ★ Retouching is recommended after 2 to 4 weeks, and the cost is 50% of the initial treatment fee.

Notes

Timeless does not use a strong Botox dosage. A small dosage reduces the possibility of side effects and resistance, and if satisfactory results can be achieved with a small dosage, maintaining it that way is the most natural approach. If there are no side effects and everything is fine, but the result feels a little lacking, it is safer to supplement it with a retouch.
