Botox

Before Treatment

One week prior:

  • Avoid Aspirin, Excedrin
  • Avoid Vitamin E, St.John’s wort, ginkgo, ginseng
  • Avoid Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin,Aleve)
  • Avoid Alcohol

During TREATMENT

  • If possible do not apply makeup
  • Less is more and a “frozen” look doesn’t look inviting or natural.
  • Dr. Nano will be precise with injections to give you the optimal and most natural looking result possible, using the right amount of product. I can always add more in 2-4 weeks if you feel or desire a plumper look.
  • Icing during procedure is not preferred, while the Botox is settling within the muscle.

After Treatment

  • Do not massage the treated areas on the day of the treatment
  • Avoid lying down for 4 hours immediately after treatment
  • Avoid applying heat to the treated area day of treatment
  • Avoid activities that cause facial flushing on the day of the treatment such as:
  • Consume alcohol, hot tub use, sauna, excersise, sunbathing/tanning
  • Gently apply a cool compress or wrapped ice pack to the treated areas for 15 minutes every hour as needed to reduce discomfort swelling or bruising up to a few days after treatment.
  • If bruising occurs it will resolve in 7-10days
