My Botox wore off too quick… so it failed?” 🤔
Let’s clear this up.
We hear this a lot — and the truth is, Botox didn’t fail. What you’re experiencing is completely normal physiology.
🧠 Botox doesn’t stop working suddenly — your nerves simply start reconnecting.
This begins around weeks 8–10 and gradually brings muscle movement back.
Here’s what actually affects how long Botox lasts:
• Your metabolism — fast metabolisers may notice results fading slightly quicker
• Muscle strength — stronger facial muscles sometimes require higher or more frequent dosing
• Lifestyle — intense exercise, stress, smoking, and sun exposure can shorten longevity
• Consistency — regular treatments help train the muscles so results last longer over time
⏱️ Typical Botox Timeline:
Day 1 – No immediate change
Week 1–2 – Results start
Week 6–8 – Peak & stable
Week 12+ – Gradual return of movement
So no — it didn’t fail. Your body is simply doing what it’s designed to do.
If you feel your Botox didn’t last as long as expected, we’re always happy to adjust your treatment plan, tailor your dosing, and review results at your follow-up.
Your best, longest-lasting outcome is always our priority.
