Can I get Botox while using Retin-A?

Hello!
Botox (a.k.a. neuromodulators) treatments are a very popular procedure here at Solomon Facial Plastic in Toronto. At SFP, we offer various different options for neuromodulators, such as Botox, Nuceiva, and Dysport. Using Retin-A or Retinol products are actually a great way to maintain the results of your Botox treatment as a home-care regimen. There is no reason why you should stop your Retin-A before your Botox treatment.  In order to determine whether you would be a good candidate for a Botox treatment, it would be best if you came in for a consultation in person with one of our highly skilled and experienced cosmetic nurses, who will be able to assess your areas of concern and advise you as to the best course of action and develop a customized treatment plan specific to your needs.
All the best, 

There is no reason to discontinue using Retin-A while you get Botox. Most of my patients are on retinols, Retin-A, or other similar products. I would recommend speaking with your expert injector about any questions or concerns you might have.All the best,

Dear mkmcknightThank you for your question!  You can have BOTOX - the main contra indications - certain oral medications, allergies or pregnancy.With Warm RegardsTrevor M Born MD

There is no problem getting Botox injections for facial wrinkles while on Retin-A. Doing both will give you good results.

. No problem staying on Retin-A and getting Botox.  Good luck with your Botox and you should be happy as the vast majority of people who get it are.

Yes, you can have a Botox treatment while using Retin-A. There is no reason why you should stop the treatment before getting your Botox injections. Botox will improve your dynamic wrinkles, mostly on the upper side of the face, and if you continue using your Retin-A, you can even enhance the botox results; it is known that Retin-A improves fine lines and wrinkles and overall skin appearance, so by having both of them done your results may last longer. During your consultation, you can mention your current skincare, and some adjustments can be made, but this product should stay in your daily routine.

Dear  mkmcknight :Yes, you can have your Botox treatment whilst on Retin-A.  If you have tolerance to Retin-A is great, you should not have any issues getting your Botox treatment done.  Please see an expert injector for best results.  Best wishes. Dr. Chetty

There is no reason for you to stop retin a as it will not impact on your botox treatment and vice versa. Good Luck

Thank you for your question. There is no contraindication in being treated with Botox and Retin-A simultaneously. Sometimes Retin- A can make your skin a bit sensitive so you may consider discontinuing the Retin-A a few days before treatment and a few days after for comfort.

Thank you for your question! Yes, you can receive Botox while using Retin-A. There are no contraindications to Botox treatments while using Retin-A. Botox helps soften fine lines by relaxing muscle, and Retin-A helps soften wrinkles by increasing skin cellular turnover rate. Using these treatments in combination is an excellent anti-aging regimen! Best wishes to you on your aesthetic journey.
