Can you receive a chemical peel the day before Botox? Jessner?

Question

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

It may be a more prudent idea to have both done on the same day as your physician can perform the Botox before the effects of the chemical peel set in. In our office, we use lighter chemical peels once monthly to help improve skin tone and clarity. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Afshin Farzadmehr, MD · Answer

Yes you may have both done same day or day before or after.  No adverse events between the two.  I have done this for years

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

You can do a peel on the same day as botox.  I suggest seeing an expert who does combination therapies.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Earl Stephenson, Jr., MD, DDS, MBA · Answer

To answer your question you could but I would not recommend proceeding this way. The skin is technically "injured" after a peel. Personally, I do place BOTOX into injured skin. I would perform your peel and once your skin has healed perform your BOTOX.

Keri Sweeten, MD · Answer

Hello, and yes you can. Keep in mind that you will have some sensitvity, need to cleanse your face and follow the post-treatment regimen. Make sure that this includes good sunblock as well to avoid any hyperpigmentation. Best of Luck!
