Botox works on the muscle — but your skin still needs love. After your injection appointment I skip retinol and acids for 48 hours, and switch to a calming ritual: Eminence Stone Crop Gel Wash + Rosehip Triple C+E Firming Oil. This softens the tiny injection points, boosts collagen underneath the smoothed muscle, and keeps your skin glowing while the Botox settles in over the first two weeks.
Injected Botox is fully bound to nerve endings within a few hours, but the skin healing response continues for days — using antioxidants during this window measurably improves the surrounding skin quality.
"Should I stop my SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic after Botox?" No — just skip the day of your appointment. Vitamin C the next morning is one of the best things you can layer with a Botox result.
