Botox – What happens during treatment?

At Good Skin Days we only use genuine Botox® produced by Allergan, the original developers of the world’s most popular anti-ageing treatment.

Botox® was first used cosmetically to reduce lines and wrinkles in 1990.

Botox® is injected in extremely small doses directly into the muscles that cause wrinkles, blocking the signals in the brain from reaching the muscle. Since the protein in Botox® solution is only attracted to muscles, it has no effect on the central nervous system or on the body outside of the localised treatment area. It is a relatively quick, simple and safe procedure when performed by experienced practitioners. Several injections are required at specific sites within a localised area. The injections take just a few minutes and are delivered with a very fine needle.

Botox® is most commonly used to reduce lines and wrinkles located in the upper third of the face.

The areas suitable for treatment include:

• Horizontal forehead lines
• Crow’s feet
• Underneath the lower eyelid
• Upper lip (vertical lip lines)
• Chin (dimpling)
• Tip of nose (droopy tip)

Botox is a prescribed drug and should be delivered in a medical environment by a fully trained & qualified Nurse or Doctor.

Prior to Treatment

• Avoid the use of alcohol for 24 hours before your appointment.
• Ensure that you let your Medical Practitioner know of any medications that you are taking, but especially if you have recently taken Warfarin, aspirin or any other anti-coagulant medication.
• We do not recommend treatment if you are on a course of antibiotics.
• We cannot treat patients who have taken the medication Roaccutane within the last 6 months.

Following Treatment

• Any small raised areas at the injection site will disappear within 1-2 hours following treatment.
• Bruising, redness and tenderness to the injection site is common and will resolve in several days.
• Do not rub or massage the treated area for 24 hours.
• Do not lie down or do strenuous exercise for 4 hours after treatment. Feel free to shower and go about your regular daily activities.
• Avoid alcohol consumption for 12 hours.
• Avoid applying makeup to the area for 12 hours. Youngblood mineral makeup may be used immediately after.
• Avoid extreme sun exposure, UV light, freezing temperatures and saunas for 2 weeks.
• If your forehead has been treated, you might experience a slight headache a couple of days after treatment as the muscles relax. An over the counter painkiller should ease this symptom.

The importance of your follow-up:

• We offer a free of charge follow up appointment to be taken within 21 days of your treatment where we will assess the effectiveness of your treatment and if necessary, adjustments may be made free of charge.
• Follow up appointments which take place after the 21 day period will be charged at £50.
• The results of Botox are not permanent. We recommend for best results to have regular treatments every 3 months. Usually after repeated treatments results will last longer and treatments can be spaced every four, five or six months.
