Can I do the peeling a while after the or it could damage or diminish the fillers. please advice me soon to postpone the procedure if I can. Thanks

However, I do both the fill and the peel. This means that I know precisely where the product is placed. If you are having different providers to these treatments, I would advise waiting about 10 days between services so your peeler does not mush your product.

Great question mary,

	I usualy inform my patients to wait at least 2 weeks before and chemical peels after you had a filler done, you want to try to avoid any risk or sensativity or infections.

Given a light/delicate touch by the provider(s), you may have both treatments close together in time. It is best to have one provider do both treatments, as s/he will know everything there is to know to prevent problems.
