I Heard That Having a Chemical Peel After Juvederm Can Cause the Area Injected to Turn Bluish. Is This True?

Thank you for your question. This is not common, unless the Juvederm was placed very superficial, then there may be a transient appearance of the Juvederm, but this is not usually the case as Juvederm is typically placed under the dermis, below the level of the peel. Always seek the expertise of a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon who have the most training and experience in these types of cosmetic procedures and provide the safest and most effective results. I hope this helps.

I have not seen this occur before. We routinely treat our dermal filler patients with chemical peels or laser resurfacing and have not had this problem. What you're describing sounds like the Tyndall effect where filler is placed too close to the skin surface and can take on a bluish appearance until it is reabsorbed. This is well known and fairly uncommon.Stephen Weber MD, FACS

The reason Juvederm looks bluish is because it has been injected too superficially in the skin. The chemical peel has no effect on that one way or the other.
