Following the Procedure / Aftercare
After a Botox injection, a reduction in the appearance of wrinkles may be noticed as early as 2 days with the maximum effect in 2 weeks. The effect from Botox slowly wears off over a period of 3–4 months.

Post-procedure care should be as follows:
  • Apply gentle pressure to stop bleeding.
  • Do not rub the area for 4 hours.
  • Do not lie down for 4 hours.
