If you miss a touch-up or decide it is not for you, that is totally fine. Other than your face going back to its natural state, there should not be any other issues.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>However, sometimes if you have used Botox for many years, your body can build up a resistance to it. In this case, your provider will likely recommend switching to another neurotoxin because it will provide the same benefits. In these cases, stopping Botox can sometimes be helpful.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Overall, you have nothing you worry about when you miss a Botox appointment or decide to stop getting injections.
