⏰ Why I Don’t Rush to Schedule the Standard “Two-Week Follow-Up” ⏰
For years, everyone repeated the same line:
“Tox peaks at two weeks”, but updated data shows that’s not actually the full picture.
Modern studies show neuromodulators continue strengthening beyond day 14 and often peak between day 21–30.
So a brow that looks slightly uneven at 2 weeks may naturally balance out by week 3 as the product fully settles.
By waiting the full 21 days, you get:
✨ A more accurate evaluation
✨ Improved symmetry
✨ Fewer unnecessary touch-ups
✨ Lower chance of heaviness from over-correction
✨ A softer, more refined final look
This is why I don’t rush to bring clients back at 2 weeks!
I do often bring new clients back for follow-ups, however it’s closer to day 21 than 14! Treating conservatively at appointment 1, and perfecting at appointment 2!
Tox isn’t an exact science with dosing and placement. Everyone has different anatomy and muscle size. Your injector needs to adjust dosing as they get to know your face, so don’t expect perfection after your very first appointment!
