Did you just get Botox or Xeomin treatment? Searching for post treatment Botox instructions?

Oftentimes salon “rush you out” the door, so you may be left wondering what you should do post Botox.

No worries – I got you covered!

Post Botox Care: Botox Post Op Instructions

Here are simple and easy post-treatment Botox instructions.

1. Do NOT lie down for 4 hours after your Botox treatment.

Lying down can cause the Botox to track into the orbit of your eye or cause a drooping eyelid.

2. Do NOT exercise for 24 hours.

Do NOT perform activities involving straining, heavy lifting, or vigorous exercise for 24 hours after treatment.

This is one of the easier post treatment Botox instructions for many women to follow. 😊

3. Don't touch it!

Do NOT manipulate the treatment area for four hours following the treatment.

4. Don't get facials.

Do not receive any facials, laser treatments, microneedling, dermalblading, microblading, or microdermabrasion after Botox injections for at least 10 days.

5. Avoid the heat.

Avoid extreme heat such as saunas, steam rooms, and hot tubs for 25 hours.

Botox Post Treatment Instructions, Advice, and FAQs

Yes! You don't want to have spent $150+ and then have the results vanish because you worked out.

Do I really need to wait 24 hours to exercise?

You could probably push it a little bit...walking is fine. You can probably go on a run the following afternoon if you get Botox the prior night.

It may take 4 to 14 days for results to be seen. Personally, I notice the results within the next day!

Will I be in pain after getting Botox?

You should NOT experience pain after your Botox treatment.
