How soon after Fraxel can I get Sculptra injections?

Fraxel and sculptra can be a great way to restore volume and improve texture and skin quality.  Swelling from fraxel can mask volume loss and should be performed after sculptra injections, or sculptra should be performed after swelling has subsided (4-5 days).

You mentioned that you had the Fraxel treatment to your forehead and under eye bags last month.  Were those the only areas that were treated?  Sculptra treatments are normally not performed on the forehead or directly under the eyes, so if you did only have the Fraxel to the forehead and under eyes, this would have no effect on your Sculptra treatments at any point in time.  Even if you did have the Fraxel treatment over your entire face, in my opinion, it would be fine to have Sculptra done anytime afterwards.  

You can have Sculptra two weeks after your Fraxel treatment.  You just want to make sure that the skin has healed from your Fraxel before the injections.  With this combination you should have a great effect! Best, Dr. Green

I will often do these procedures simultaneously. There is no reason you can't proceed with Sculptra at any time. I think that Sculptra is an excellent volumizer and can be used around the eyes.

Thanks for your question. It would be best to discuss this with your provider, but I would recommend waiting at least 3-4 weeks before having the Sculptra treatment.
