Masseter Botox
When Do the Effects Appear?
The effects of Botox are generally felt within 3–7 days, with full results visible within 10–14 days. The average duration of effectiveness is 4–6 months. With regular applications, the muscle relaxation habit increases, leading to longer-lasting results.
Dr. Mustafa Eray Erkek uses FDA-approved botulinum toxin products in his procedures, ensuring both safety and predictable outcomes.
Post-Procedure Care Instructions
- Avoid intense physical activities, sauna, steam baths, and hot showers for the first 24 hours.
- Do not massage or apply pressure to the treatment area.
- Keep the head in an upright position for the first few hours and avoid excessive facial expressions.
These precautions help the Botox settle properly into the muscle and enhance the longevity of the results.
