Your Results
Anti-aging injectables are nonsurgical treatments that require no recovery. After your appointment, you may resume your daily routine, but strenuous activities or exercise should be avoided for at least a day to ensure the best possible results. Dr. Hakimi will also ask you to avoid touching your face and sleep with your head propped up for the first night.
Treated areas of the face may appear bruised or red with a small amount of swelling for a few days after your appointment, but you should not experience any lasting side effects. In most cases, you will start seeing the effects of Botox after 3 to 5 days, and you can expect these results to last for up to 4 months. Dysport has a similar duration, but you may start seeing results as soon as 2 to 4 days after your injections are administered. Daxxify also tends to work faster (within 2 days) and lasts for an average of 6 months.
When you start to notice wrinkles returning, follow-up appointments can be scheduled to extend the longevity of your results. With the right treatment timeline, you can enjoy smoother and more youthful-looking skin year-round.
