The most popular cosmetic surgery right now is Botox Breda injection, which has emerged as the cornerstone of therapy for the prevention and treatment of facial aging in recent years, along with dermal fillers.
A slightly artificial appearance, typically brought on by a loss of facial expression or other obvious indicators, may, nevertheless, occasionally result from the treatment.
A Massage
After receiving Botox, avoid applying pressure to your face or getting a massage at a spa. It’s possible for the Botox to accidentally harm such muscles by spreading to other places. Your next massage should ideally be scheduled at least a week in advance.
After Getting Botox, Pay Attention to Your Movements
For the first four hours following a Botox injection, we encourage patients not to lie down, stoop, or exercise. By increasing blood flow to the face, these activities have the potential to wash away Botox before it has completely dispersed to the treated areas.
Intense Physical Activity
Exercise will increase your chance of bruises, so avoid doing it on the day of treatment.
Less is more, yet the precise amount of units varies from person to person. Later on, more Botox can always be added. We start with a low number of units to see how the person responds.
Steer Clear of Alcohol Both Before and After Getting Botox
Avoiding alcohol for 24 hours prior to and following your treatment is a smart idea if you have previously bruised or are worried about being bruised.
Although alcohol doesn’t affect Botox’s effectiveness, it is a vasodilator, which means it promotes blood vessel relaxation and enlargement.
Small puncture wounds continue to bleed and bruise as a result of the increased blood flow close to the skin’s surface. By deactivating platelets, which are the cells that stop bleeding, it can also raise the chance of bruises.
Alcohol dries up your skin and thins your blood. Avoid alcohol for 48 hours prior to your Botox procedure to prevent bruises.
Limit Your Time in The Sun
Following Botox, patients should stay out of the sun and saunas. Limiting or avoiding sun exposure in the days after an injection is a good idea since sunlight can create pigmentations in the skin that has been perforated by needle injections.
Sauna use is permissible after a Botox operation, but should be avoided for the first four hours. There should be no effect at all from cold temperatures.
Four Indications of Botox Errors
Although it’s rare that you will encounter any of these problems when you schedule an appointment with us, it’s still advisable to be aware of the warning signals and what is usual following a surgery. Here are some instances of Botox errors:
Asymmetry
The first thing you’ll notice about someone whose Botox has moved or been placed unevenly is facial asymmetry. Their face may not look smooth or even overall, and some wrinkles may seem frozen.
Hooding the Eyelids
Injections around the eyes may cause hooding of the upper eyelids, which would be a sign that the Botox Breda was given too near the eyes. Proper techniques should result in a smoother appearance around the eyes rather than a changed eyelid.
Appropriate Depth
Only reputable medical facilities and qualified personnel should be trusted with your face. A key to success is knowing how deep or shallow to inject Botox.
If the Botox is applied too deeply, it may strike a blood artery and result in needless bruising. Conversely, injections that are excessively shallow may result in an uneven, “superficial” appearance.
An excess of a good thing
Depending on the look you want, the pros will always give you advice on how frequently to get injections. Excessive brows or lips can give the appearance of being unnatural.
Nonetheless, sticking to a “less is more” strategy is always safer. Although we can always add more Botox later, it’s recommended to start with less and work your way up to your ideal appearance.
