How long does botox last? if i'm going to spend $400 or $500 for botox, i want it to last as long as possible. how long do the effects realistically last?

I : I tell my patients it takes 3-4 days to really start seeing the effect of Botox on facial muscles but everyone is variable. The typical duration of action is 3 months but I have had patients tell me it lasts 2 months and some 6 months.It depends upon how much was injected and how active your facial muscles are. I hope this helps dr edwards.

This : This is so variable.Myexperince has been 4-6months but every ones body will metabolize it differently so you never know.

The : The effects of Botox vary on the recipient site with the crow's feet appearing to demonstrate the shortest results lasting in the range of 3 months whereas in other parts of the face it may last as long as 5 moths.

Varies: The longevity of Botox varies from person to person. The majority of patients will see the effects for about 3-4 months. I have seen a very small amount of patients that the effects last 6-8 months, but this is very rare. Hope this helps.
