Disease description:

I received Botox injections for facial contouring just one week ago and have not experienced any unusual reactions so far. However, I’ve avoided wearing makeup during this period. Could you please advise how long I should wait before applying makeup after Botox treatment, and what precautions should I take?

Hello, Firstly, after receiving Botox injections for facial slimming, it is essential to pay close attention to facial care. During this period, you should avoid applying makeup immediately to prevent potential infection. In general, you should refrain from wearing makeup for approximately one week following the injection. The chemical ingredients in cosmetics may interfere with the treated areas. Therefore, we recommend waiting until your face has fully recovered before resuming makeup use. I hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
