Yes, you can wash your face following Botox injections. To ensure the best results and minimize complications, it is important to follow certain precautions.
1. After Botox, wait 4-6 hours before washing your face. Let the injections settle and take effect.
2. Make sure you use tepid or lukewarm water instead of hot. Botox may move around if it is exposed to hot water.
3. Cleanse your face gently. Do not scrub, rub, or tug at the injected skin. Be sure not to rub or pull any injection sites on your face as you make gentle circular motions.
4. Use a gentle cleanser that does not contain alpha-hydroxy acids (AHA) or beta-hydroxy acids (BHA) for a day following Botox injections. It helps prevent skin sensitivities.
5. You should avoid facial treatments like microdermabrasion and chemical peels after Botox. It is possible for these treatments to irritate the skin and interfere with the healing process.
