Chemical peels are commonly done after a Botox treatments. Good Luck.
Yes, in fact it is very common for patients to undergo a Botox treatment and have routine peels. I would recommend thatfirst a peel be performed which is then followed by the Botox treatment. If you do it in reverse then waiting 2 weeksis optimal.
We commonly perform chemical peels before or after Botox injections, especially when they are spaced as far apart as 2 weeks. There are no issues with this combination of treatments.
I regularly perform chemical peels of varying depth in my office. In patients with severe rhytids of the face, I insist on Botox injections before the chemical peel to allow more even distribution of the acid solution during the procedure.
Chemical peels can be done at the same time you do botox. If a crease or line is still present after you have your botox in effect, then you can peel it if it is very shallow or superficial. If the crease is still deep then I would fill it with either Juvaderm or Radiesse or Restylane.
