Can you get Botox® and dermal fillers in the summer?
Whether you are new to Botox® or experienced, many patients ask if you can get injected in the warmer months.
Yes. Absolutely, you can. Botox® and fillers are safe for year-round use. Results with Botox® fully settle in within 2 weeks, just in time for whatever summer fun you have planned.
A few things to remember:
• Avoid direct sun exposure for 24-48 hours after treatment
• Skip intense exercise the day of your appointment
• Stay hydrated
• Apply SPF (you should be doing this anyway)
Schedule a consultation with Erin or Paige to get started.

BOTOX® Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA)
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
BOTOX® Cosmetic may cause serious side effects that can be life threatening. Get medical help right away if you have any of these problems any time (hours to weeks) after injection of BOTOX® Cosmetic:
Problems swallowing, speaking, or breathing, due to weakening of associated muscles, which can be severe and result in loss of life. You are at the highest risk if these problems are preexisting before injection. Swallowing problems may last for several months.
Spread of toxin effects. The effect of botulinum toxin may affect areas away from the injection site and cause serious symptoms, including loss of strength and all-over muscle weakness, double vision, blurred vision and drooping eyelids, hoarseness or change or loss of voice, trouble saying words clearly, loss of bladder control, trouble breathing, and trouble swallowing.
BOTOX® Cosmetic dosing units are not the same as, or comparable to, any other botulinum toxin product.
Approved Uses
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a prescription medicine that is injected into muscles and used to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe forehead lines, crow's feet lines, frown lines between the eyebrows, and vertical bands connecting the jaw and neck (platysma bands) in adults.
