Best Season For Botox
The effects of Botox are not seasonal and don’t vary with the time of year. Whether you receive it in the summer or winter, Botox typically lasts 4-6 months.
If you are considering Botox, speak to your dermatologists about treatment options. (Adam J. Mamelak, MD, Austin Dermatologic Surgeon)
Best time of year to do Botox
It makes no difference what time of the year you get Botox. What makes a difference iskeeping it up at regular intervals as soon as the muscle contractions and you see lines from repetitive movement of these muscles. (Fredric Haberman, DO, Ridgewood Dermatologic Surgeon)
Botox is fine any season
The efficacy of Botox is not dependent on the season. Seasonal variations or sun exposure also do not increase the risk of complications with Botox. (Heidi A. Waldorf, MD, New York Dermatologist)
In reality every season is a good time for Botox. There will be no difference in the effectiveness of Botox from variations of the season of the year. You might want to start thinking about Botox accordingly for the season if you like to look radiant and refresh for the winter holidays or before summer for the sunshine activities. (Gustavo A. Diaz, MD, Charlotte Facial Plastic Surgeon)
Botox can be used at any time of the year. I do not recommend facial cosmetic surgery over the summer If patients plan to expose themselves to the sun. (Robert L. Kraft, MD, FACS, New York Plastic Surgeon)
Best Time For Botox
The best time for Botox is all year long. (Joshua Halpern, MD, PA, Tampa Plastic Surgeon)
Best time to do Botox
There is no better time of year for Botox injections given you are a candidate for the procedure. There are some treatments such as laser and IPL treatments that are not safe to have performed if sun exposure has occurred, but Botox does not fall into this category. (Michael J. Brown, MD, Ashburn Plastic Surgeon)
It makes no difference what time of year you have your Botox injections. It works the same in winter or summer. (David S. Felder, MD, Fort Lauderdale Oculoplastic Surgeon)
Botox acts on the muscles underneath the skin, so it shouldn’t matter what time of year you get treated. Certain procedures like lasers and peels are best performed during a time when you are not exposed to a lot of sunlight, but with Botox, this should not affect the desired treatment. (George Lawson III, MD, FACS, Winston Salem Plastic Surgeon)
Best Time For Botox
When you are younger to prevent those “elevens” from setting in!Actually, there is no better time for Botox than the moment you decide that you don’t want your wrinkles to show as much as they do.
Seasons don’t matter. (Michael A. Greenberg, MD, Elk Grove Village Dermatologist)
Best time for Botox
There really isn’t a season for or best time to do Botox. Botox typically takes 1-2weeks to take full effect and lasts about 3-4 months. So the best time is whenever you’re ready. (Asaad H. Samra, MD, New Jersey Plastic Surgeon)
Botox any time of year
Botox relaxes muscle movement and does not make the skin more sensitive to the sun, as does a laser treatment. Botox can be done any time of year since neither the sun nor temperature will affect it. (Martie Gidon, MD, FRCPC, Toronto Dermatologist)
Botox timing
Time of year should not have any effect on the use of Botox. You should be able to get good results as long as you see an experienced injector so do some research prior to choosing someone.
The treatment typically lasts around 3 to 4 months. (Kenneth E. Morgenstern, MD, Philadelphia Oculoplastic Surgeon)
There is no “best season” for Botox. It works equally well throughout the year. Treatments typically last 4-5 months, but can be as short as 3 months, or as long as 6 months. (Michelle R. Yagoda, MD, New York Facial Plastic Surgeon)
I have patients that come in for Botox every 3-4 months all year round. There is no specific season for Botox. (Steven Wallach, MD, New York Plastic Surgeon)
There is no special season for Botox
Patients generally come in every 4 to 6 months for Botox injections so there is no “season” for Botox, but many patients come in before the holidays to look their best! (Michele S. Green, MD, New York Dermatologist)
BOTOX is ideally used all year round
If you have facial expressions that bother you and you would like to soften, treating them every 3 months year round will give you the most consistent and best result. If you would rather use it only for “special seasons”, then summers are great if you want to address crowsfeet that you see when squinting in the sunshine.
Botox is typically done every 3-6 months depending on the person. Botox is done all year round for the preventative of wrinkles. There is no contraindications of Botox use during different seasons. (Sugene Kim, MD, FACS, Houston Plastic Surgeon)
Best Time To Do Botox Is When You Need It & Are Ready
I have been injecting Botox for cosmetic reasons since 1991. I have not personally found, nor is there any data to suggest that Botox works any better when injected during one season or another. What I can say is that repeated use of dynamic wrinkles (wrinkles related to the motion of the muscles of facial expression) eventually leads to the development of etched-in static wrinkle lines (wrinkles at rest).
Any time of year
Botox or Dysport can be done at any time of year. There is no “best time” per se. I counsel my patients that the results last between 4 and 6 months for most people before they need repeated.
That is the good and the bad about Botox- It’s temporary if you don’t like the exact result…but it’s temporary and you need to do it again if you do!(Daniel J. Givens, MD, Dubuque Facial Plastic Surgeon)
Botox time
The best time to do Botox is Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall as it needs to be done every 3-4 months for maintenance. If you do not plan to maintain the Botox’s preventive effects year round, do not expect optimal results. (Edwin Ishoo, MD, Cambridge Facial Plastic Surgeon)
When is the best time to do Botox?
Botox acts to paralyze the muscles of facial expression through a series of tiny injections. Because it acts on the muscles below the skin, Botox does not affect sun sensitivity like some types of facial rejuvenation procedures can (laser treatments, chemical peels, tretinoin cream).
You can feel comfortable having Botox done any time of the year. During your appointment, your physician will carefully plan where to inject the Botox in order to improve lines on your forehead, glabellar region (between your eyebrows) or crows feet, depending on your individual anatomy and goals.
Botox generally starts to take effect around 3-4 days after it is injected, and about 7 days before the full effect is noticed. It then lasts around 4 months. For this reason, patients will often have injections several times a year. (Claire S. Duggal, MD, Annapolis Plastic Surgeon)
You may have Botox winter,spring,summer or fall. (Brian K. Reedy, MD, Reading Plastic Surgeon)
Best time for Botox is now and every 3-4 months
Botox is a great treatment to relax the muscles around your eyes that you use to squint and frown. We use it in many other places in the face and neck as well. There is no recommended season for using it.
It is best to repeat it every 3-4 months so that the muscles never fully return to full function. When Botox is used in this way, the wrinkles that you already started to get soften and start to recover and other wrinkles are prevented from forming. (Quenby Erickson, DO, FAAD, FACMS, Chicago Dermatologic Surgeon)
When is the best time to do Botox – winter or summer?
There is not a specific time of year that is better than the other. Botox can be done and have the same result anytime of the year. (Michael E. Ciaravino, MD, Houston Plastic Surgeon)
Best time to do Botox
You can get Botox any time of the year and unlike some of our laser procedures there are no post-treatment concerns regarding sun exposure. If this is your first time getting Botox then you should not schedule it within 1 week of any major personal event (such as wedding) as your doctor might need to see you 7-10 days post injection to ensure that your Botox result is truly perfect. (Andrei Metelitsa, MD, FRCPC, FAAD, Calgary Dermatologic Surgeon)
