how long do you have to wait after filler to have micro-needling RF procedure?

Question

I am in my late 40s and have an appt for Scarlet RF coming up in a few weeks. I would like to have some filler and /or Botox done as well and am wondering how long I should wait after having filler and botox to have Scarlet RF. Thank you!

Susan Fox, DO, RPVI · Answer

I would recommend doing the micro needling and rf prior to the filler or botox.  We do not like to do these at the same time.  I usually recommend doing the micro needling and rf prior or at least two weeks after. The Botox can set over a week to 10 days and I would hold off until it fully sets in.  As well, I usually recommend that someone wait around 2 weeks after filler placement for micro needling and rf.

Dmitriy Schwarzburg, MD · Answer

Your fillers and botox take 3-5 days to settle so that is the minimum amount of time you should wait before getting secret RF. I would give it a week or two to play it safe and avoid migration of filler or botox.
