How long to Notice the Results of the Botox?
I Had botox between eyes and frown lines 2 days ago but I see no difference.
Botox time to work
Botox typically takes 2-3 days to begin to work. The complete effect can take about a week. If after a week you haven't seen an improvement you should see your doctor. Pre-injection and post-injection photos can be very helpful in documenting the improvement. Your doctor should also keep close records documenting how much they've injected, at what concentration and where. Be sure to find a board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist. At my practice, I perform all the injections personally. I hope this helps.
Botox (onabotulinumtoxinA) is an FDA-approved neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes targeted facial muscles to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles. It works by blocking the release of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction. Results typically appear within 3–7 days and last 3–4 months, though some patients report longer duration with consistent treatment. Common treatment areas include the glabella (frown lines), forehead, and lateral canthal lines (crow’s feet). Dosing is measured in units and varies by treatment area and muscle mass.
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons recommends choosing a board-certified plastic surgeon for any cosmetic procedure.
