You have made the decision to get Botox, but may be concerned about the recovery process or what to do after treatment. Unlike other surgeries and outpatient procedures, Botox has very minimal requirements for recovery. However, that does not mean you should be unaware of aftercare treatment. The following will describe the three best recommended practices to follow after your treatment when finding your Botox in Leawood specialist. In addition, be sure to ask your doctor what their recommendation is for your specific procedure.

Ice

One of the potential side effects of Botox is Leawood. However, this can easily be combated with icing the spot of injection immediately following the procedure. Ice will reduce swelling, bruising, and any mild discomfort. For best results, be sure to keep the ice in contact with and around the injection site for at least 10 minutes. The coolness of the ice will do the rest of the work for you.

Maintain

Maintaining is as simple as preventing migration, or the movement of the Botox medication, to unwanted areas other than the injection site. Be sure to avoid touching, massaging, or putting pressure on the site where you received treatment. Massaging or placing pressure on the injection site can cause migration and paralyzing of unwanted muscles. Additionally, it is important to refrain from lying down for 3-4 hours following the treatment. Lying down during this time can also cause migration of the medication.

Keep In Contact

Keeping in contact with your doctor after receiving treatment is important if you feel you have had any allergic or improper reactions to your treatment. Be sure to speak with your doctor about any facial exercises or additional recovery treatment that is necessary. Working with RSVP Med Spa, and keeping an open form of communication, will be the best way to achieve the results desired when initially receiving treatment.

When searching for a Botox Leawood specialist, be sure to find a doctor you trust and who will be able to answer any questions you have about your Botox treatment. Botox is a very simple procedure that can be maintained regularly with great results. .
