What sort of recovery is needed following Botox injections?
Since the procedure is nonsurgical, no recovery time is needed. After Botox Cosmetic treatment, you can get back to work or other activities right away. Occasionally slight bruising may occur where Botox is injected and a mild headache may follow. Bruising may be greater in patients who are taking aspirin or any blood thinning medicines. These products should be avoided if possible prior to the injection. Muscle weakness is first noted anywhere from 2 to 10 days after injection; the effect is not immediate.
