Question

Hello and thank you for your question. Our advice would be to wait until you have been signed off by your surgeon for having these treatments- If all goes well it would not be long to wait. Always seek an experienced and qualified practitioner, best wishes

Monica Boen, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question. These treatments are a wonderful way to put the finishing touches on your surgical procedures. While a facelift and neck lift are very good at addressing skin laxity, they don’t offer much improvement in the quality of the skin overall. Injectables, lasers, and other procedures can restore your radiant glow. I would advise you to wait at least six weeks to give your skin ample time to heal before adding more treatments. However, your doctor can advise you more specifically. Make sure you are working with a board-certified dermatologist with extensive experience and training to ensure the best possible result.

Jonathan Kulbersh, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question. In most cases, these treatments are completely safe after about six weeks, provided you don’t experience any unexpected side effects from your surgery. Make sure the person that performs your nonsurgical treatments has the same amount of experience and expertise as the plastic surgeon that performed your surgery to ensure an optimal outcome.

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

Hello, thank you for your question. I would recommend that you wait until your swelling has gone down. This can be up to 4-6 weeks post op.

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

Usually you will want to wait 6 weeks after surgery before having other treatments. Your surgeon will be the best one to advise you based on the details of your procedure and how you are recovering from surgery.
