I will be receiving an injection of Hyaluronidase for an over injection of tear troughs with Belotero. I had previously scheduled a peel and these treatments are less than a day apart (Hyaluronidase at 6:00 pm and peel at 12 noon the next day). Is this ok?

Answer: Hyaluronidase Treatments and Timing of Chemical Peel The reason to wait with the chemical peel is to make sure that the treatments with Hyaluronidase are complete, the over injected area has been appropriately treated, and the problem of over injection has resolved. Once the chemical peel is performed, the associated swelling (edema) and skin changes will obscure the problem area. The swelling and skin changes from chemical peels may vary based on the depth of penetration of the acid. There are mild peels, moderate peels, and deep peels using different acid options like TCA or Phenolic Acid.If the problem of excess Hyaluronic Acid persists after the chemical peel, the affected area can be re-treated with Hyaluronidase. Best wishes!

Answer: Chemical Peels and Hyaluronidase A chemical peel can be done a week after Hyaluronidase injections. Depending on the peel if there are no marks from the injections it should be safe to proceed. Best, Dr. Green
