How Can I Prolong My BOTOX Cosmetic Results?
BOTOX Cosmetic typically lasts three to four months, but we’d all love for it to stay a little longer. Most things that prolong neuromodulator results are good skincare practices in general. For example, avoiding excessive sun exposure, quitting smoking, and using a moisturizer containing hyaluronic acid can keep your skin smooth and healthy.
Taking your vitamins might also help extend the life of your injectables. A Baylor College of Medicine study found that 92% of participants saw a nearly 30% increase in the duration of their BOTOX Cosmetic results when they took zinc and phytase supplements.
Additionally, reducing your stress levels may help you stop inadvertently frowning or tensing your muscles which can reduce pressure on the areas treated with BOTOX Cosmetic. Stress also releases cortisol which causes an inflammatory response in your body and speeds up the aging process. Daily meditation and yoga aren’t just great for your mind and body – they could be good for your face too.
