How soon after Botox can Halo laser treatment be done?

You can have a Halo treatment about 1 day after you have had Botox. In general we recommend a patient does no physical activity for about 4 hours after Botox. We recommend Halo prior to Botox, but if you would prefer to have Halo after the Botox, then I  waiting at least one day is advisable. 

Our office would perform a Halo treatment 2 weeks after Botox injections.  It never hurts to do the Halo first and then follow with the Botox.  Good luck and enjoy your Halo!

In my practice, I prefer to do Botox or Dysport injections at least 2 weeks before any Halo procedure.  The reason is that, with the Halo laser procedure, you will have a small degree of swelling.  In theory, this swelling can push the botox to other parts of the face that we do not want it.  When this happens, the Botox can affect muscles in the face that we don't want to target with the Botox.  This can lead to unwanted results such as drooping of the eye brow which would then take around 3 months to recover.  It is always best to be cautious in order reduce the risk of unwanted results.  I hope this helps.  Best of luck to you.  

You should be fine to get your Halo treatment two weeks after Botox injections. For completeness and safety, let your treating physician know about your Botox treatment.

Two weeks is a good interval of time to wait between your Botox and Halo laser treatment. You should be fine.

Two weeks should be plenty of time-The Botox is working at full affect at this point and there should be no interactionwith the laser light.That said, be sure to confirm this with your physician.

I think it is important to individualize this by the patient.  How much time do you have to come to the office.  Most do not recommend Botox at the time of a Halo treatment, but there is no evidence to support this.  The theory is the heat from the laser will inactivate the botulinum protein. Nobody really knows.  The general consensus is that 2 weeks is the proper time before or after...but talk with your provider about your needs.

Two weeks is more than enough time for Botox to lock in and allow other treatments to be given.  Rule of thumb in our office is that Botox should never be injected same day as any procedure is done that causes swelling and it should never be injected into a face that is swollen for any other reason.  Swelling can push Botox out of positions a result in relaxing muscles you never intended to relax. 

Two weeks post Botox injections is absolutely appropriate for a Halo treatment.  Dr. Grant Stevens Marina         Plastic

Two weeks is a conservative number. Many patients will have a halo treatment much sooner post botox treatments. You treating physician will be best able to advise you as he or she understands the scope of the treatments and the specifics about you.
