At Sherman Aesthetic Center, board-certified ophthalmologist and oculoplastic surgeons Dr. Deborah Sherman and Dr. Mark Melson have spent decades refining their expertise in BOTOX. In addition to their own extensive experience, they have carefully trained their clinical team to be highly skilled in administering BOTOX treatments. Our providers understand that while precise technique plays a key role in your initial results, how long those results last often depends on your lifestyle. Let’s explore the habits that can help you maintain your refreshed, youthful look for longer.
Sun Protection: Your First Line of Defense
Excessive sun exposure accelerates collagen breakdown, leading to wrinkles and faster fading of BOTOX results. To maintain your smooth, radiant complexion, apply broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher daily, wear sunglasses and wide-brimmed hats, and seek shade when possible. Protecting your skin from UV rays not only preserves your BOTOX outcome but also supports long-term skin health.
Protect your skin by:
- Applying broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher daily
- Wearing sunglasses and wide-brimmed hats
- Seeking shade during peak sun hours
Nourish Your Skin for Longer-Lasting Results
Healthy, hydrated skin retains its elasticity and vitality, enhancing your BOTOX outcome. Incorporate medical-grade skincare products with ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and peptides to support skin renewal. Maintain hydration and a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and omega-3 fatty acids to further promote longer-lasting smoothness.
For skin that enhances your BOTOX results:
- Use medical-grade skincare with hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and peptides
- Stay hydrated with plenty of water
- Eat a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and omega-3 fatty acids
Avoiding Smoking and Excessive Alcohol
Nicotine and alcohol can dehydrate the skin, constrict blood vessels, and accelerate the breakdown of collagen and elastin. Over time, these factors contribute to premature aging and reduced BOTOX longevity. Limiting these habits helps protect both your skin and your investment in aesthetic care.
Protect your results by:
- Avoiding smoking, which reduces oxygen flow and breaks down collagen
- Limiting alcohol, which dehydrates the skin and diminishes elasticity
- Supporting smoother, longer-lasting BOTOX results through healthy choices
Maintenance Treatments: The Key to Consistency
Even with the healthiest lifestyle, BOTOX results naturally fade over time, typically after three to four months. Regular maintenance sessions help preserve your results, prevent deep lines from reforming, and train facial muscles over time to remain more relaxed. Drs. Sherman and Melson have trained their expert team to customize each session for your facial structure and aesthetic goals, ensuring your look remains natural and expressive.
