Botox treatments usually last four to six months. Follow the tips below to help your Botox last longer!
Botox is most commonly used for cosmetic procedures. It is a non surgical procedure that injects the Botox into the area on the face which is to be treated. Botox is typically used to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles. There is no downtime and results can be seen quickly – within 3-4 days. It is a great alternative to surgery which can be expensive and have downtime. But, can you make your Botox last longer?
Botox freezes muscles and creates a smooth appearance. While there is not a cream on the market that is as effective as Botox(yet) we suggest the following after your procedure to help your Botox last longer.
- Use a daily moisturizer and sunscreen. See this previous post about the top 4 skin products everyone needs.
- Enjoy a healthy lifestyle and keep hydrated – water is the best kept secret to having flawless skin!
- Do not smoke. Smoking not only can cause cancer, but it also creates unnecessary wrinkles in the face. Quit the habit now and stop aging quickly.
- Avoid excess stress – stress causes many side effects in the body including wrinkles in the forehead.
- Add a niacinamide cream in your daily skin care routine. See here for more information.
