Will getting Botox before or after Ultherapy "hinder" collagen stimulation?

Question

Will getting Botox before or after Ultherapy "hinder" collagen stimulation or distribution since the injected muscle can't contract anymore? Any known side effects with getting these two procedures performed?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

I suggest reaching out to a facial expert for a formal consultation. I like to recommend my patients start a combination of facial rejuvenation treatments.

1) Skincare with products and microneedling/PRP
2) PDT Light Therapy a few times per month with growth factors
3) Laser treatments like Clear + Brilliant regularly and others (Fraxel, Moxi, Viva, CO2, Erbium, Halo) a few times per year
4) Sculptra injections a few times per year for collagen production with fillers like Juvederm, Restylane, Belotero, Radiesse, and/or Bellafill
5) Thermage/Ultherapy for yearly skin tightening with or without PDO or cone-based Instalift threads for lifting
6) Botox every 2 to 3 months to stop movement lines and prevent lines at rest

Best, Dr. Emer.
