Botox

Botox is a neurotoxin that temporarily relaxes muscle activity in specific areas, primarily used to reduce wrinkles and fine lines on the face. By blocking nerve signals to muscles, it softens their contraction, resulting in smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
At Nūr Aesthetics, the most common areas that are treated are the forehead lines, glabella (known as scowl lines), crows feet (lines around your eyes), and even give a subtle enhancement to the top lip by relaxing the muscles around the upper lip.

  • Avoid blood-thinning medication such as ibuprofen, aspirin, Aleve and Motrin to prevent bruising, and avoid herbal supplements, such as omega-3 capsules, vitamin E, St. John’s Wort, garlic and ginkgo biloba. Inform the Nurse Practioner of your medications and if you have any skin conditions requiring prescription.
  • Avoid waxing, tweezing, bleaching and hair removal creams. Don’t use anti-aging products such as alpha hydroxy acid, Tretinoin (Retin-A), glycolic acid, retinols and retinoids for three days prior to the treatment.
  • Do not consume alcohol for at least 24 hours prior to the treatment to minimize the risk of bruising.
  • Arrive at the appointment with clean, makeup-free skin. Do not apply any skincare products or makeup to the treatment area.
  • Avoid laying down, leaning forward or rubbing and touching the injected area for at least four hours after treatment. Avoid vigorous exercise, straining and heavy lifting. Avoid wearing headbands and hats. This helps prevent the Botox from spreading to unintended areas.
  • Refrain from strenuous exercise or excessive heat exposure (saunas, hot tubs) for at least 24 hours post-treatment. This minimizes the risk of migration of Botox to unintended muscles.
  • Continue to avoid blood-thinning medications or supplements for at least 24 hours after the treatment.
  • Botox results may take a few days to become noticeable and can continue to improve for up to two weeks.
  • If you have any concerns or questions about the results or experience any unexpected side effects, contact your provider for guidance.
  • If necessary, a touch-up appointment can be scheduled after two weeks to fine-tune your results. Discuss this with your provider.
