Will a Glycolic Peel Affect Radiesse Filler?

Question

Dear Drs. Is Radiesse filler going to be lessened by a Glycolic peel? Thanks for your help. Kindle.

Kurtis Martin, MD · Answer

No, a glycolic peel will have no effect on a filler. The peel is more superficial and the filler is deeper in the tissues.

Michael I. Echavez, MD · Answer

A glycolic peel will not affect Radiesse.  The peel will only affect the most outer layers of the skin and the Radiesse is injected into deeper layers under the skin.

Radiesse Volumizing Filler is used for subdermal implantation, that means
it is injected deep under your skin.After injection, patients may experience
swelling, bruising or redness. Glycolic Peels are used for skin texture and
tone improvement. Chemical peels come in different strength, therefore downtime
after procedure may vary. Usually dermal fillers are not performed the same day
as chemical peels, because injections may induce side effects, such as skin
irritation or inflammation. For best results it is recommended to perform these
cosmetic procedures 5-6 days apart.

A glycolic acid peel in a superficial peel which should have not impact on Radiesse which injected deeper in the skin.  I would avoid doing these treatments on the same day, however.

Jeffrey W. Hall, MD · Answer

Glycolic peels will not affect Radiesse.  Radiesse is injected deep under the skin.  A peel will not affect the skin tissue at that depth.  It is more superficial.

Michael Contreras, MD · Answer

Peels affect the outer layers of skin called the epidermis and dermis.  Radiesse is injected deeper into the layer below the skin so it will not be affected by any type of chemical peels.

Connie Hiers, MD, FACS · Answer

The glycolic peel is a superficial peel that removes the epithelium or top dead cells of your skin. Fillers are injected just below the skin or some in the deeper fatty tissue. The glycolic peel will not interfer with the filler. I would not suggest having them done at the same time in the same area.
