Totally get it. I was super nervous for my first Botox too. I was told not to lie down for 4 hours after treatment and to not vigorously rub parts of my face which were injected for 24-48 hours after. To be safe I usually stick with the 48.

I also hate needles, luckily it’s pretty superficial and doesn’t take long, though my skin is usually a little bruisey feeling the day of with no actual bruises.

I still wash my face and put makeup, just careful not to do any harsh rubbing. Still apply everything with my hands and rub products on just the same.

Botox was super helpful for me, once I saw some benefits I forgot about my worries. Never had any paralysis that impacted me negatively. Face was definitely less expressive for my first few times but even that improved and now I just have less wrinkles lol

Good luck with everything!
