This is my first time getting Botox. How long should I wait between exercising and drinking after the procedure?

I am finally going next week to get the square jaw Botox I've been putting off! It's my first time getting Botox in my life, so I'm excited, but also a bit worried. I'm curious about the precautions after the procedure. Generally, for how many days should I avoid exercise or alcohol to be safe? I enjoy going to the gym every weekend to work up a sweat and I tend to hang out with friends often, so I'm planning to make a plan in advance.

I've looked it up online and am confused because some say I only need to be careful on the day of the procedure, while others say I should abstain from alcohol for a week for optimal results. I've also heard that high-intensity weight training can cause the medication to spread; is that true? If there are any members with extensive experience with Botox, I'd like to know how many days of rest you actually took. Additionally, I would appreciate it if you could let me know if I should avoid saunas or steam rooms immediately after the procedure!

    ​첫 보톡스라니 설레면서도 긴장되시겠어요! 운동과 음주는 일주일 정도 쉬는 게 안전해요.

    보톡스는 저라면 무조건 전문가 분에게 물어본 뒤에 음주 하시는 걸 추천드리고 싶어요... 고강도 웨이트 역시 조심해야겠죠... 모든 시술이 다 비슷하지 않을까요?

    보통 일주일 정도는 피하는 것이 가장 안전할거에요!

    어우 보톡스는 아무래도 일주일이나 이주일은 음주 쉬어주시는게 나을 거 같아요 일단 저는 쫄보라서 ㅎㅎㅎ
