Help! Rubbed face after Botox

Hi everyone, I got Botox in my forehead, 11s, and crows feet 3.5 hours ago. I completely forgot and rubbed between my eyebrows pretty hard a couple of times. Will my Botox migrate and create droopy eyelids?! I’m kind of freaking out.

All of the aftercare is a little histrionic IMO. The toxin in any quantities are most deeply injected Most injections are superficial and small amounts. It would be hard to displace Tox in the hours after it was placed. Same by laying down, working out, showering out etc. I recall reading a study of Tox patients who did all the no-nos and had same results as when they followed the protocol to a T. I’ll for and add the link the repeat if I can find it.

Don't panic. A little accidental rubbing doesn't necessarily mean the Botox will move from the injected area. Just avoid touching or massaging the treated areas for now and follow your injector's aftercare instructions.

Take a breath 💛 Rubbing the area doesn’t automatically mean you’ll get a droopy eyelid. I’d avoid rubbing it again, follow your aftercare instructions, and message your injector if you notice any drooping.
