I just got several treatments done including skin Botox (dermotoxin) which I’ve never gotten before and I got soooo itchy after! Wondering if I messed up my results by rubbing my face??

I had Thermage, Ultherapy, a hydrating facial, and then skin Botox (by far the most painful jfc) done in the afternoon. I left in the early evening and walked around for about an hour. I felt fine, just a little tight, but after an hour I started feeling slight tingling. About 5 hours post-procedures, the itch became unbearable and I got in a lukewarm shower and rubbed the crap out of my face under the water. I didn’t cleanse per their instructions but I pretty much rubbed until I was no longer itchy then I put on the moisturizer they gave me and now I feel fine. However I’m worried that rubbing so hard may have moved the Botox around and messed me up? I’ve never gotten Botox let alone skin Botox done before so idk how this affects me. Have I damaged my results? ):

Side note: I’m shocked everyone says Ultherapy is so painful. I’ve had it done twice now, 300 shots before then 600 shots today, and it was mildly uncomfortable at worst. Thermage, microneedling, and skin Botox were far, far more painful for me.

I’m gonna be in Seoul for just 5 days before hopping over to a beach vacay elsewhere. I want to get some beauty treatments done but not something where I have to avoid direct sun exposure for several weeks.

Obviously I’ll wear sunscreen but for example I’m not gonna do microneedling then go into the sun with sunscreen. In that case I’d just avoid the sun completely for 1-2 weeks.

I’m mainly looking for treatments that’ll help with wrinkles, fine lines, pores, and collagen building over time. I don’t do filler. What other treatments would be good for me?
