I am considering fillers for my nasolabials but am concerned because I have melasma on my upper lip. Will the injection and/or fillers cause the melasma to worsen. Also I have melasma between my eyebrows and was considering Botox to treat my frown lines. Can the injection cause the melasma to worsen?

Botox is clear in color. Botox comes as a powder and needs to be reconstituted before injection. It is not yellow at all. Please consult with a board certified dermatologist for the best cosmetic results.
Yes. It is generally recommended that you wait about a full day after a Botox injection before proceeding with your microcurrent treatment just to be on the safe side.
Great results can be achieved to soften chin dimpling with small amounts of Botox (typically 5-10 units). The duration of effect will average 3-4 months depending on the strength of the muscle and the dosage used.
