Asked By:Yovanna9 in Florala, AL

I have an appointment for fillers for the hollowness under my eyes and Botox to bring up my eyebrows a little bit. I have this scheduled first then I have lip surgery 6 days after. Which I will be under anestesia. Should I wait till after my surgery to get the fillers and Botox? Does it matter?
