How long after filler injections (Restylane, Botox, etc) must you wait to perform microdermabrasion or light chemical peels?
Answer: Micro/peels first I suggest you do the microdermabrasion or chemical peel first, then the filler. If you do it the other way, it's safer to wait about 2 weeks.

Answer: Microderm or Chemical Peel Post Injectables Thank you for your question. Ideally you would want to do your microderm or chemical peel prior to receiving your injectable treatments. If not, we recommend waiting 10-14 days post injections for the potential swelling to fully resolve and/ or to have Botox to take full effect before receive any facial treatments. Hope this helps!

Answer: Microdermabrasion or Chemical Peels after Botox or Fillers Chemical peels, wait for 2 weeks. Microdermabrasion, can do immediately. Just minimize sun exposure by using hats and sunscreen. Also, make sure you don' t have cold sores on lips. The stress of injections and microdermabrasion can cause a cold sore (herpetic break out) and you will need to use Valtrex. Regards

Answer: Microdermabrasion and Injectable Fillers may be performed the same day. You'll probably want to have the microdermabrasion performed first. Then your doctor can place topical anesthetic, and perform the Filler procedure. Also, we routinely combine light chemical peeling with microdermabrasion. I hope this helps, and best regards.

Answer: No definitive answer when to do peels or microdermabrasion after filler injection I want to make a simple clarification. Botox is NOT a filler. It is used to relax muscles which cause wrinkles but not fill creases, depressions or grooves. Generally, I would advise waiting at least 1-2 weeks but this is based on my personal experience. I believe it could be done sooner but Botox takes about 3-5 days to take effect and fillers may cause bruising for up to 7-10 days.
