How often can I get Botox injections?

[Steve P]

Hi

I had botox injections done 5 months ago and now it seems that the lines around my eyes have come back and my forehead wrinkle lines have come back again. The GP who did my last botox injections said that botox will eventually wear off but the results were so good, that I am now desperate to have more done. I would like to know if its ok to have botox injections again? How often can I get botox injections?

Thank you for your question.

Anti-wrinkle treatment can be carried out five months after the previous anti-wrinkle treatment. We usually dont carry out new anti-wrinkle treatment until at least 3-4 months has passed since the last treatment.
