Brides aren’t the only ones who want to look their best on their wedding day. Grooms are also booking Botox appointments to look even better for their big day. Botox can smooth away forehead lines, or the furrow between your brows. Are you self-conscious about your wrinkles? After a Botox treatment, the only thing people will see is how happy you are to be marrying the love of your life. 
## What is Botulinum Toxin?
Are you ready to smooth away the wrinkles at the corners of your eyes that make you look older than you feel? Botox is the perfect treatment option. Botox appointments take just a few minutes, and you don’t need to book an expensive surgery or plan for downtime. 

Botox injections contain botulinum toxin and a saline solution. When injected, the toxin will settle into the target muscles to help these muscles relax. For example, when you furrow your brow, the Botox will help keep your brows apart and relaxed. When the muscles relax, the skin over the muscles smoothes, erasing fine lines and decreasing wrinkles just in time for you to say I do.
## Book Your Botox Early
Your Botox appointment only takes a few minutes, but you’ll need to time it just right. You will start to see some results after a few days, but you won’t see the full results of your Botox until two weeks after the appointment. The best time to book your Botox appointment is about one to two months before the big day. If you’re not completely satisfied with your results, you’ll still have time to book a follow-up appointment for another dose, and look your absolute best.
## Don’t Book Botox on the Bachelor Party Weekend
If you’re having your bachelor party a few weeks before the wedding, you should book your Botox appointment at least two weeks before your bachelor party. Botox side effects are usually mild. You may notice some swelling or redness at the injection site, but this fades on its own within a few hours.

However, alcohol can make your side effects a lot worse! Alcohol can increase your risk of bruising or swelling at the injection site. We recommend that you avoid drinking for at least two days before and two days after your Botox appointment. 
## Find a Professional You Trust
A bad injector increases your risk of side effects. For example, injecting a very high dose could make your face look frozen, while injecting Botox in the wrong muscle could even give you a droopy eye.

If you’re getting Botox to look your best on your wedding day, make sure you find a professional you trust. A good injector will reduce your risk of side effects and help you achieve your desired results.
