Is it possible to cancel botox or do something right after the procedure?
It is necessary to wait for the final action of the drug. After that, as a last resort, an antidote is injected, which dissolves and removes Botox from the body.
How long does the drug remain in the body after administration?
The excretion of the drug is carried out by the kidneys after 3-4 weeks after the injection completely, without residue.
Botox is a toxin. Can it cause poisoning when injected?

Is it true that botox will remove some wrinkles but cause others?
Under certain conditions, there is such a possibility, but this, as a rule, is 1-2% of cases. If suddenly this happens, you can do a second injection of Botox, which will lead to relaxation of the newly formed wrinkles.
Can I sunbathe and go to the bathhouse after Botox injections?
No, you can’t for one week. These are general safety rules after any cosmetic procedure.
Is it true that botox is eliminated faster due to active workouts that speed up the metabolism?
No that’s not true. As an example, my patient who does Botox injections on a regular basis 3 times a year and is actively involved in sports several times a week. If the patient already has no effect from the drug, then playing sports does not affect the result of Botox injections in any way.
