Answer: Fractional CO2 laser after fillers Lasers and filler injections can definitely performed in the same patient. I typically would not perform them at the same treatment session due to the possibility of moving the filler around during the laser treatment (if the fillers were placed first), or affecting the placement of the fillers based on the appearance of the skin (if the laser was performed first). I typically would like to place filler injections, and then come back sometime in the next week or two to perform the laser treatment, but this depends on the patient and where the fillers are being placed (and also where the laser is being performed). In some cases, we may perform both treatments during the same session without any issues.Be sure to see a physician specializing in facial aesthetics for any facial injectable treatments or any aggressive laser resurfacing.All the best,

Answer: CO2 laser after fillers Yes, a fractional CO2 laser treatment while having fillers on board is safe and does not diminish the effect of the volumizer. However, I would recommend allowing the swelling from the filler treatment to subside prior to the laser treatment so any increase in swelling after laser can be attributed to the laser and not the recent filler treatment. Usually 1-2 weeks in between the two treatments is good as long as the swelling from the filler has subsided.

Answer: Timing of laser and filler treatments Fillers can absolutely be done before or after laser resurfacing treatments. I often recommend patients undergo the laser procedure first followed by filler a month or so later, but its also fine to do fillers and follow up with laser. On some occasions, I will treat patients with fillers and perform their laser resurfacing procedure at the same time. Discuss this with your treating physician, as some of the details will depend on what type of laser you are having done and where the fillers are being injected.
