Botox

There is little to no downtime with Botox. It’s recommended to stay upright for 4 hours post procedure, avoid hats and headbands day-of, and avoid exercise for 24hrs while the product sets. There may be slight bruising at the injection site, which often resolves in a few days. Avoid facials and laser treatments for 2 weeks.

Fillers

There is minimal downtime with Fillers. Most commonly there’s slight bruising, swelling, and/or tenderness at the injection site for the first few days. It’s recommended to avoid exercise and prolonged pressure/stomach or side-sleeping 24hrs while the product initially sets. Avoid facials and laser treatments for 2 weeks.

Fillers

Immediately! However, the product may take 3-4 weeks to fully settle.

Botox

Some may see results in as little as a few days, but full results can take up to 2 weeks for the desired relaxation effect.
