Hi and thank you for sharing your question here! Liquid facelift is a non-surgical whole-face rejuvenation procedure using a combination of fillers and neuromodulator such as Botox, Dysport or Xeomin. I personally may add some PDO threads in certain cases as well for even better results. It can take up to 2 weeks for the neuromodulators to completely kick in. For the fillers, although we see the results immediately in most cases, it can take up to 2 weeks for any swelling and inflammation to completely resolve as well and we have the final look. So, whenever doing filler or Botox, I will give it at lease 2 weeks before an event. It won't hurt to give it even a bit more time to be on safe side, specially for people with fair skin, in case any bruising happens too. If it is a major event like a wedding and alike, then I recommended to have it done about 4 weeks. This way even if you need some touch up after 2 week, you still have time for that. I hope it helps and good luck!IMPORTANT: These answers are for educational purposes only and should not be relied upon as a substitute for medical advice you may receive from your physician.
