Tips for After Your Lewisburg Botox® Treatment

added on: March 27, 2023

Are you ready to talk to someone about Botox® near Lewisburg, but you don’t know where to start? Try Dr. Scott Bonomo and the team at Union Dental Health. We can introduce you to Kristen Snyder, RN, our own Aesthetic Nurse, with advanced certifications and training in dermal fillers and more. 

Once we show you how easy it is to look your best with Botox®, you’ll move forward with your treatment. Depending on how many places we want to target, your procedure should only take about 15 minutes. Keep in mind that for most patients, your desired results aren’t yet visible immediately after Botox®. It might take a week or two before you see the real results. Within two or three weeks, the full effects should be apparent, yet natural. 

Here are a few things to remember for Lewisburg Botox® aftercare:

1) No Pressure Please – Try to avoid putting pressure on the affected areas for about one to three days after your treatment. No massages or tight headwear that might risk moving your injections from their intended areas. Try not to sleep on the affected areas also, if possible. 

2) Shun the Sun – Direct sunlight has a tendency to raise your blood pressure and flush the skin. If you’ve just had Botox®, this could leave bruising around the injection sites. It’s best to avoid direct sun exposure, tanning beds, and hot tubs for about 48 hours.

3) Avoid the Booze – You’ll be advised to avoid alcohol before your Botox®, but you’ll want to give it about 24 hours before you have another drink. Why? Because alcohol has an anti-inflammatory effect that thins your blood where bruising can occur. Avoid ibuprofen for the same reasons. 

Botox® in Lewisburg has become a huge hit across the Susquehanna Valley. It’s the easiest, most effective way to get rid of unwanted lines, wrinkles, and even pain in some cases. You won’t know how amazing you’re going to feel (and look) until you give us a call to schedule a consultation. We’ll introduce you to our team, including Kristen. She’ll be able to help you understand the benefits of Botox® and what you can expect after your own treatment. Call us today!
