I went to the hospital two days ago to get Botox injections for facial slimming. Recently, I'm considering having a facial gua sha treatment. How long should I wait after Botox injections before doing facial gua sha?

Patients who have received slimming facial injections can undergo facial gua sha four weeks after the treatment. By this time, the effects of the injection have fully taken place, and performing gua sha will not interfere with the results. However, patients must carry out gua sha only under the guidance of a qualified professional to avoid abnormal skin damage and ensure proper recovery.
