There is no problem as long as you wait for a day after your treatment. Please also refer to your doctor's after care also.

Hi and thank you for your question! I am not aware of any studies investigating the impacts of Blue Light therapy on Botox, although I do not think it's very likely to have any sizeable negative effects. Still, being an elective procedure, there is no harm in being extra cautious and waiting a bit longer after Botox or doing it after you are done with Blue Light. I hope it helps and good luck!

Thank you for
your question carysmagill. I understand your concern. Botox is a purified
protein used to address wrinkles associated with facial expression. There have been no tests to address the safety or efficacy of blue light treatments after Botox treatments. In such cases I conservatively recommend that my patients wait one week after either of these treatments before having the other treatment. Please
consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!

Sean Doherty, MD, FACS · Answer

I would suggest that you wait at least a couple of days after getting Botox before getting blue light therapy, but not, there shouldn't be any issue. Best of luck.

Thank you for your question. There is no problem receiving blue light therapy post Botox injections. However, definitely wait at a minimum of 24 - 48 hours before receiving treatment. Always discuss these concerns with your plastic surgeon or technician.
