Answer: Botox and Acupuncture Thank you for your question. I don’t see any problem doing acupuncture 2-3 weeks apart from Botox. I would recommend informing your providers that you do Botox and facial acupuncture. I hope this helps!

Answer: Botox and acupuncture Acupuncture hasn't been found to interact negatively with Botox. Just make sure to wait until you've recovered from Botox before getting the acupuncture. 2 weeks is a good timeframe, but you may want to wait 3 just in case.

Answer: Botox and Timing of Facial Accupuncture I would avoid any facial accupuncture for 2 weeks after botox injections. Otherwise it should be safe to have done. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Botox and acupuncture You can do both to the face, but you should space at least 2 weeks between the procedures! In both procedures, needles are going down into muscles, and since the target tissue is common to both, you do not want to do something where one procedure could affect the results of the other. I would recommend doing the Botox 2 weeks (or more) before the acupuncture. If the muscles are relaxed, there will be less pain associated with the placement of needles during the acupuncture.Hope that is helpful to you! If you want it explained another way, please let me know.Debbie Kessler Hudak, MD
