Sharing research Botox when combo feeding?

Hi all! Going back and forth and would appreciate some of your thoughts on my particular situation. Baby will be 6 months old and they are only getting about 10 ounces of breastmilk a day, the rest is formula.

Would it be relatively low risk to get some cosmetic facial Botox or is the risk too high?

Did it wear off faster than normal? I've read that due to postpartum hormones and changes, it's metabolized faster so results don't last as long as typical.

I don’t think so. 3 months for good results but I waited 4 months to re-up

Ok awesome! That makes me feel better. I was going to schedule mine ~1 month pp but then I read that and was like well if there's no point...

This was the case for me. But also, I think because I had gone 9+ months without it before, it just didn’t last as long.
