How long does BOTOX® last?
This depends entirely on the patient, but a single treatment of
BOTOX® will normally be sustained for approximately three months.
You will notice a gradual fading of its effects. At this point you
will return to your doctor for your next treatment.
Usually, BOTOX® treatment is required only three or four times
a year. Symptoms may vary throughout the course of the condition,
and so the degree of relief and duration of effect varies from person
to person. Consult your doctor, who has special knowledge about
how to achieve the best possible results with BOTOX® for your
individual case.
Acceptable safety in long-term treatment has been well established. With
dosing specific to treat frown lines, this same product is now marketed
as BOTOX® Cosmetic. However, formal clinical evaluations of
long-term treatment have not been conducted. |
