Light chemical peel okay after fillers
It is not a problem to have an Obagi Blue Peel after receiving injectable fillers such as Sculptra, Radiesse, Juvederm, or Restylane. If you were to have certain laser procedures performed, they might cause the fillers to degrade more rapidly. The Blue Peel, however, is a very superficial TCA peel (TriCloroAcetic Acid), and will not reach into the deeper tissues where the filler resides. On the other hand, because the Blue Peel is so superficial, you may not see a...

Chemical peels can be done at the same time as Sculptra or Radiesse
Fillers work deep in or under the skin to provide volume and will not be affected by chemical peeling or degraded by LASERS. You should do great! Best to you.

Blue peel will not interfere with wrinkle fillers
No problem. I have performed similar procedures together without any problems.

Obagi Blue Peels will have no effect on fillers
An Obagi Blue Peel is a trichloracetic acid chemical peel that penetrates only a small distance into the skin. Radiesse and Sculptra are "volumizing" fillers that, when properly injected, are place below the skin. Therefore, it is safe to have your Obagi Blue Peel at any time during your Sculptra treatment course.

Obaji Blue Peel does not affect dermal fillers
Obagi Blue Peel is a trichloroacetic acid peel that penetrates into the papillary dermis, the most superficial part of the dermis.
Sculptra and Radiesse are deposited either between the dermis and subcutaneous fat tissue or on the bone, deep in the tissues.
There is no interaction.
I would suggest, however, that the Obagi Blue Peel wait until two weeks after the Sculptra and Radiesse injections just so that the swelling from those procedures settles.
