Getting the Most Out of BOTOX Cosmetic in Tulsa

BOTOX® Cosmetic in Tulsa is a powerful and safe non-surgical cosmetic treatment that can reverse common signs of aging, such as crow’s feet and forehead wrinkles. With this cosmetic treatment, results are not apparent right away. It can take anywhere from days to weeks to see the optimum results. Dr. David B. Minor, a board-certified dermatologist at Skin Renewal of Tulsa, can help tell you how to get the most out of your BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment at our office.

Things to Avoid Before Your Treatment

While every situation is unique, there are some general things you can do before the treatment in order to ensure a safe, successful treatment and result. For example, you should avoid Aspirin, Ibuprofen, and other related NSAIDs one week before your treatment and continue abstaining for another week after your treatment. You should also avoid St John’s Wort, Gingko Biloba, Ginseng and supplements containing vitamin E and Omega-3 fatty acids.

Things to Do After Your Treatment

Similarly, there are some general things you can do after the treatment in order to ensure the best results. For example, always follow the instructions provided by the BOTOX® Cosmetic specialist before and after the treatment, like avoiding specified medications and supplements. You’ll also want to keep your head elevated or remain in an upright position after your treatment. Keeping yourself in this position will relax the muscles in your face, improving the results. Avoid engaging in strenuous activities such as aerobic exercises, running, training, and bending over for a set amount of time after your treatment. Also, don’t apply massage to the treated area unless you are instructed by the BOTOX® Cosmetic specialist.
