Botox is an extremely popular cosmetic treatment. It can minimize wrinkles, smooth away fine lines, and give you even more confidence in your skin. When administered correctly, Botox can decrease the signs of aging and help you look younger. When you book your first Botox appointment, these are some tips to help you get the best results.
## Don’t Overdo It
 When it comes to Botox, a little goes a long way. This is especially true if you’re getting Botox for the first time. Each person can respond a bit differently to Botox, so start with a small dose to see how you’ll react. You can always schedule a follow-up visit after about two weeks and add a bit more Botox to get your desired results. It’s easy to adjust your results by adding, but there’s no way to take away Botox if it’s giving you any unwanted results.

Great Botox is almost undetectable. You shouldn’t feel that your face is frozen, and you shouldn’t look different in a very noticeable way. 
## Be Patient and Wait for Results 
Botox takes about two weeks to reach its full effect. If you don’t think your Botox appointment gave you the best results, be patient and give it a few days. You won’t see the full results until at least 10 to 14 days after your injection. After a couple of weeks, your opinion might change. If you’re still not completely satisfied after two weeks, your injector may be able to do some touch-ups to tweak your results.
## Know When It’s Time to Stop
Botox can give you smoother skin and a youthful glow. But Botox can’t completely transform your skin. Set realistic goals and don’t expect Botox to make you look 30 years younger. Know when Botox has reached its limit and stop adding Botox. Increasing the dosage can increase the risk of side effects such as a droopy eyelid or the risk of a frozen looking face. 

Consult with your healthcare professional to find out what results are achievable, and trust them to help you determine when you’ve reached your best results.
## Take Zinc Supplements
You can enhance your Botox with zinc. This mineral can give you a better outcome, give you healthy looking skin, and reduce acne or breakouts. You can take zinc supplements or find natural sources of zinc in eggs, meat, whole grains, and legumes. You can also look for skincare products that contain zinc.
## Work With a Professional You Trust
The best way to get great Botox results is by working with a professional you trust. A skilled injector knows exactly how and where to inject Botox for the best results. They also have a lot of experience with dosing and can confidently recommend the perfect dose to give you your desired results.
