What To Do Before Your Botox or Xeomin Appointment

24 Hours Before Your Botox Treatment

  • Avoid Alcohol – Skip wine, cocktails, and beer to reduce the risk of bruising.
  • Skip Blood Thinners – Avoid aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), naproxen (Aleve), fish oil, and vitamin E unless prescribed by your doctor.
  • Limit Caffeine – Too much caffeine can increase sensitivity and bruising. Opt for water instead.
  • Stay Hydrated – Drink plenty of water to keep your skin healthy and prepped for treatment.
  • Come with a Clean Face – Remove makeup, lotion, or any skincare products before your appointment.
  • Avoid Intense Workouts – Strenuous exercise increases blood flow and may contribute to bruising.
  • Inform Us of Any Changes – If you’re feeling unwell, have a new medical condition, or started new medications, let us know before your session.
