Can I Use Botox After Pregnancy, or Do I Need to Wait?
Unwanted lines and wrinkles are never fun, and if you’re pregnant you may wonder when it’s safe for you to use Botox. Unfortunately, if you’re hoping for Botox while pregnant, it’s out of the question.
But what about afterward? Can I use Botox after pregnancy?
Do I Really Have to Wait for Botox?
The good news is you can have Botox after pregnancy!
But, there’s a catch to that answer. The FDA has not approved Botox for breastfeeding mothers, and no significant time has been spent studying the effects of Botox on a baby. So, you should wait until you’re done nursing.
You’ll also want to wait until your hormones and skin have settled back to normal. Otherwise, Botox may do more harm than good and you will likely not end up with the look you really want.
Okay, I Know the Answer to My Question, “Can I Use Botox After Pregnancy” So, What Next?
Enjoy the pregnancy glow! You’ll still have it for a while after so just let it be. You’re beautiful! It’s important you look and feel your best when you’re ready, so schedule a day to be pampered in the future, and get ready to enjoy the incredible results of Botox!
What Else Should I Know?
It’s possible the answer to your question is not exactly the answer you hoped for, but please remember that a professional, trustworthy dermatologist will not offer you Botox while breastfeeding. Stay away from any cosmetic dermatologist that tells you it’s safe, because there is no evidence of that.
