📌 Drinking alcohol on the day of Botox? Is it really okay? Sharing my personal experience 🍷💉
A few days ago, I got Botox for my jaw... and I happened to have plans with a friend.
But I hesitated for a moment. "Is it okay to drink alcohol on the day of Botox...?" 😅
When I looked it up, the information was all over the place, so I was really curious and asked the dermatologist directly!
✅ Botox effects, starting with a brief explanation of the principles!
Botox is a procedure that temporarily paralyzes muscles to reduce wrinkles or define the jawline.
For example, the principle is the same for various treatments like hangover Botox or jawline Botox – muscle relaxation!
The procedure itself is simple, but there are quite a few precautions to keep in mind to maintain the effects for a long time.
Why is alcohol consumption on the day of Botox treatment not allowed?
I heard the most that you should really avoid drinking alcohol on the day of Botox.
The reason?
1. Decreased immunity
Drinking alcohol increases the likelihood of experiencing Botox side effects such as inflammation, bruising, or swelling.
2. Delayed recovery at the injection site
Since Botox is injected directly into the skin, alcohol consumption can slow down the recovery process.
3. Heat and Stimulation
- Not only alcohol, but also saunas, jjimjilbangs, and hot baths are not allowed! Skin irritation → possible reduction in effectiveness 😭
⏱ When can I start drinking alcohol again after Botox / procedures?
- Absolutely no on the day
It is recommended to refrain from alcohol for at least 3 to 7 days after Botox.
Many people ask if Botox is okay before drinking, but it's better to avoid the procedure when you are hungover.
💬 한줄 요약
I ultimately postponed the appointment and chose the one with longer-lasting Botox effects lol
Since you've already taken it, let's just hold off on alcohol and heat stimulation for a little while!

- 01CommentsIt is said that the duration of Botox effects can vary depending on the treatment area, the degree of muscle development, and the dosage used. Rather than blindly increasing the dosage or undergoing a re-treatment simply because the effects wear off quickly, it is important to verify the product and dosage used during the initial procedure, as well as the duration of the effect. It is also advisable to consult with a medical professional to determine the interval for re-treatments based on your individual condition.431126.10.19
- 02CommentsIf you have a habit of clenching your teeth and experience jaw stiffness every morning, it is important to check the condition of your temporomandibular joint (TMJ) in addition to the cosmetic aspects. When consulting about Botox, be sure to mention your habit of clenching your teeth and whether you experience any pain. If necessary, it is also a good idea to have your teeth ground or TMJ issues checked at a dental clinic. Rather than making a decision based solely on muscle size, it is better to consider the cause of your discomfort and the desired improvement effects together.171026.10.19
- 03CommentsI imagine you must have been satisfied to hear that not only your shoulder line but also the stiffness has decreased. Since the trapezius muscle is used extensively in daily life, it is important to consider not only the effectiveness but also any discomfort when making a decision.371126.10.16
- 01CommentsWow, I really enjoyed reading your review!! I also have a habit of frowning when looking at the monitor, so I'm worried about wrinkles between my eyebrows ㅠㅠ It's only been two weeks, but the results look so natural! Did you experience any awkward or heavy sensations when making facial expressions after the injection?603326.10.14
- 02CommentsI need to get it too, but it hurts so I can't go. If you get it properly, you will see good results.1443126.10.13
- 03CommentsI think a 6-month cycle is fine. It usually goes away after just 3 months. I haven't been able to go because I'm scared of the injections.503226.10.13
- 01CommentsWhen you get Botox, the movement of the muscles between your eyebrows is reduced, so you may actually become more aware of the habit of unconsciously tensing them. While the sensation of squinting while the Botox is active does not mean wrinkles will immediately deepen, the habit of repeatedly and strongly tensing the muscles between your eyebrows can affect wrinkle formation. It would be a good idea to consciously check if you are tensing your eyebrows when looking at a computer or mobile phone, and if you experience eye strain, try adjusting screen brightness or your break times as well.963326.09.29
- 02CommentsAfter receiving trapezius Botox, you may experience stiffness for about the first week due to muscle weakness. Therefore, it is recommended to avoid upper body strength training or carrying heavy bags immediately after the procedure. Once your body adapts over time, there will be no major issues with your daily life, so please take a rest for the time being. I hope your questions have been answered.541026.09.30
- 03CommentsI totally relate to yours, as my biggest worry before getting Botox was that my facial expression would look unnatural or stiff! I definitely think the most satisfying results come from just naturally smoothing out wrinkles without being too ambitious. Just not having foundation settle between my eyebrows is truly a small but significant improvement in my quality of life. 👍 Thanks for the thoughtful review!4687426.10.06
