How long should you wait to have microneedling after Restylane injections?

Question

Nima Shemirani, MD · Answer

Hi @Tommy0001! You should space the treatments out by two weeks.  I recommend seeking treatments from expert injectors who have the skill and experience to precisely inject fillers into treatment areas and avoid risks and complications. Best of luck to you, Dr. Nima!

Thank you for your question. You do not need to wait long, as the injections should heal within a couple of weeks. However, to avoid overly aggravating the skin, it’s a good idea to wait until you are experiencing no more side effects from the dermal fillers, such as swelling, bruising or tenderness. Generally, 2 weeks should be long enough. Be sure to tell your aesthetician that you just had Restylane® injections. Good luck!

Thomas Buonassisi, MD · Answer

Usually about two weeks, as you want to see the full affect from the filler treatment, and minimize trauma to skin. It might be beneficial to consider microneedling first, and filler (two weeks) after, as some people experience a nice plumping affect from the microneedling, which may lend to a better result from dermal filler, and/or less product required.

Dear Tommy0001,Thank you for your question. I usually recommend waiting about 2 weeks after injections to do any type treatment, including microneedling.

Benjamin Van Raalte, MD · Answer

It is my opinion you dont have to wait at all. Usually we will do fillers right after a microneedling. If you did before , I would wait 24 to 48 hours.
