Is it alright to re-inject botox after 2.5 months?
22 doctors weighed in across 5 answers
OK if needed: This is usually not a problem in the face if muscle action has started to return significantly. Botox lasts 3 months on average, so it will last longer for some and shorter for others.

Maybe not: Increased frequency of injections may increase your risk of developing neutralizing anti indoors which can convert you into a nonresponder.

Probably: Botox lasts an average of 3-4 months, so two weeks early is likely not an issue.

On: On average Botox provides results for 3-6 months. Botox injections may be repeated at 3 months in cases in which the effect is weakening. It should only be done at 2.5 months if the initial dose was not enough or a similar reason.

Botox: If you have muscle motion back then yes. The goal is to attenuate the contraction of the targeted muscle. Typically it takes 3-4 months before re-treatment is desired but in some it may be faster. There is no safety concern.
