Hello! Can Botox injections + Hylenex be used in the same area—same day? I had tear trough filler (silk). I’d like to schedule an appointment for Botox (crows feet) soon + Hylenex for my under eyes. Will Hylenex effect the Botox? Can both be applied on the same day? Suggested order; Botox 1st + then Hylenex? Vice versa? Suggested time frame for each, assuming they can’t be done same day? TX laws, fake reviews and lots of new Drs. and medspas make it hard to know the truth these days. TIA!

If you had a total of only 6 units that is not enough to do much of anything good or bad. if the zygomaticus under the eye was hit with Botox it is possible to look puffy and distorted but the amount is not enough. see melvinelsonmd.net
Botox is an intramuscular treatment that doesn’t travel through your bloodstream. That said, I never advise patients to get unnecessary cosmetic treatments while pregnant or breastfeeding. You just don’t want to take the risk. Plus, doing so creates the kind of worry that you’re now under...
Hi, hopefully by now you are feeling better! Botox injected into the masseter muscle should act on the muscle fibers it was injected into- it would not diffuse across the face.
Best wishes!
