I got my first Botox injections yesterday & the doctor told it was OK to receive the needle point micropen treatment all over my face just a couple of hours later. I just want to know what makes it possible to combine these two processes in one sitting. Is it because the botox is just injected to relax your muscles & not a filler that can be moved? I haven't seen any results from my Botox after 1 day. I'm assuming I'll know if it worked in about a week? Thank you!

Answer: Botox and Microneedling I often combine these procedures on the same day, although theoretically many think you should not as there is risk of spreading the botox to areas you did not want it to go. I have not found this to occur whether the botox is injected first or later. Botox takes 2 weeks to work completely. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Botox and micropen We perform this on a daily basis in my practice however we perform micropen treatments and then Botox. The reasoning is that we don't like to lay patients flat after Botox because we don't want the product to migrate and cause deleterious effects.
