Anyone who gets Botox

5 replies

Mathsface1 · 15/10/2019 18:34

I’ve had Botox for the first time around 4 months ago for extreme frown lines that have been there since my teens. Because they were bad they haven’t gone completely but the difference is amazing for me! My forehead looked collapsed before, it looks almost normal now like lines but not crevices everywhere. I wish I’d done it years ago.
Anyway the effects are definitely wearing off and I really would love to get it done again. My issue is that recently I’ve had a viral bug picked up from one of my kids that ended up being full blown flu and now I seem to have a wisdom tooth infection and have a prescription for an antibiotic. I have rarely taken antibiotics and not sure if I need to yet until it gets v bad.
My question is can you still get Botox if you are not in the best health? I look like crap now from everything and obviously am drinking lots of water, plenty of veg/ fruit etc the frown lines are returning and loads of events coming up and have spent years hearing plp say how wreathes I look. It would be a massive pick up but is it ok to get if not in optimum health?

Just check with the practitioner who will do it for you. I’m sure it’s a simple yes or no but get it from the professional.

Some practitioners won't inject if you are on anti-biotics.

I have a lot of botox (for medical reasons) and never been asked about my health only a quick check that I'm not pregnant so should be fine.
