Pre-Care Botox Protocols
Consultation
The first step to finding out if you are a suitable candidate for Botox is a consultation with a licensed healthcare provider experienced in administering Botox injections. During this consultation, you can discuss your goals and expectations and any potential risks or complications.
Medical History
Provide a thorough medical history, including any allergies, previous cosmetic procedures, and medications you are currently taking. This information is essential for determining your eligibility for Botox treatment.
Avoid Blood Thinners
Before the procedure, it’s usually recommended that blood-thinning medications or supplements (e.g., aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil) be avoided for a specified period. This helps reduce the risk of bruising at the injection site.
Skin Preparation
Ensure your skin is clean and makeup-free on the day of the procedure. Your healthcare provider will clean the treatment area before administering the Botox.
