can i put makeup on after botox

While it's usually recommended to keep your skin clean after a botox injection to avoid potential irritation or infection, it's generally safe to apply makeup a few hours post-procedure once the injection sites have calmed down.

It's preferable to use a non-comedogenic makeup that won't clog your pores. Mineral-based makeup could also be a good option as it's often gentler on the skin. However, it would be best to consult with your dermatologist or the professional who administered your botox for specific advice catered to your skin type and condition.

Following botox, it's usually ideal to keep things simple for the first 24 hours. You should avoid vigorous rubbing or massaging of the injection site. Use gentle cleansing products and avoid any harsh exfoliators or skincare products with active ingredients until your skin has fully adjusted. Again, individual advice can vary, so always check with a professional.
