I have restylane in the tear troughs, and was considering having thermi smooth done under the eyes. Will it affect the restylane, or can the restylane interfere with the thermi smooth treatment itself? Thank you.

Answer: ThermiSmooth and Fillers Yes, ThermiSmooth can be used over your fillers like Restylane or Juvederm and probably will not cause it to go away faster though studies will have to be done to verify this is the case. The reason for this is that the skin surface is heated with the RF whereas the fillers are injected more deeply. In response to RF induced heat at the skin surface the collagen in skin shrinks when heated to a sustained temperatures greater than 40°C. When the skin is heated to this level, this creates a physiologic process that stimulates fibroblasts to produce new collagen over time.

Answer: Thermi smooth may or may not interrupt your dermal fillers. Thermi smooth may or may not interrupt your dermal fillers. I recommend returning to your injector and discuss the treatment, as they will have a better idea of where the product is and where you will want thermi smooth. All the Best.
