Go for it! It should be perfectly fine to have Botox for your forehead and fillers injected into your nasolabial folds 6 weeks after a rhinoplasty.

Steven Wallach, MD answers: Waiting period for Botox or Restylane after Rhinoplasty?
I am considering using Botox for my forehead and crows feet and Juvederm or Restylane for my nasolabials folds, but I had a Rhinoplasty 6 weeks ago. Are there any potential issues or risks or potential complications? I am not sure if there is a waiting period.

A: Botox and Fillers after Rhinoplasty

Hi,
I typically tell my patients to wait 3 weeks after Rhinoplasty for Injectables. The reason for this is that I believe there are Inflammatory reactions that may decrease the longevity of Botox or other injectable fillers. All injectables are typically removed from your body through the inflammatory process, therefore waiting for the inflammatory reaction to subside is prudent.
Best,
Dr.S
