So the other day, after a little friendly Botox around my eyes, I thought.....I wonder if Botox would help with this tissue expander pain I have. So I googled it and yep...it's being used immediate postoperatively after mastectomies and expander placement . From what I've read it helps a lot. Wish I had it. I've had expanders since December and with the last 2 fills I have a lot of pain.

Has anyone done this

    My understanding of the use of Botox with expanders is that the pectoral and other muscles areinjected during surgery. I have not seen any members here receive Botox after surgery.
