Surgical Artistry’s newest employee asks today “why refrain from working out for 4 hours after Botox.” This is a rule that I’ve imposed on my Botox patients. <\/span><\/div>\n

Here’s my answer:<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Working out causes a lot of blood flow \u2013 and with the working out \u2013 the increased blood flow leads to increased blood pressure \u2013 which leads to possible bursting of some internal blood vessels which I may have just “poked” \u2013 which will then lead to possibly more bruising and more swelling.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
So the answer is \u2013 to help avoid bruising.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
But there is some added benefit of keeping swelling down.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
I came up with the 4 hours, mainly because I think it\u2019s enough time for the blood vessels to seal themselves completely by then. I don’t have an actual scientific study that mentions 4 hours as an optimal amount of time, but it seems to have worked well for me and my Botox <\/a>patients.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
