Botox

You can expect Botox results to last 3-4 months.

Most patients begin seeing results within 5-7 days, with full correction at the 2 week mark.

You should be able to resume your normal activity immediately after receiving Botox or Dysport. However, vigorous rubbing of the treatment areas and facial massages should be avoided for at least 48 hours following treatment. It is also recommended that you avoid laying down for 4 hours after treatment and avoid strenuous activity (working out) for 24 hours.

Botox stops the contractions of the muscles that create the lines and wrinkles on your face. Biologically speaking, Botox injections work by blocking the uptake of acetylcholine by facial muscles. Through this process, facial wrinkles soften and can sometimes be eliminated completely. Dysport has the same mechanism of action.
