Can I do ultherapy after I've had botox and fillers?

Yes, Ultherapy can be done after having Botox and fillers done. The Ultherapy will not interfere with your Botox and filler results.

It is completely acceptable for you to proceed
with Ultherapy after having Botox and/or fillers. However, it is recommended to
wait about two to four weeks before starting Ultherapy. This is preferred to
allow swelling and bruising from the injections to subside prior to Ultherapy treatment.  

Yes, you can have Ultherapy performed after receiving Botox or dermal filler injections. I typically wait at least 2 days after doing Botox, or I do Botox immediately after Ultherapy. A new study that was presented at this year's ASLMS, and will be published soon, shows that you can do Ultherapy immediately after fillers with no problems. I typically wait a couple of days just to avoid increased swelling. Otherwise, I do the fillers immediately after the Ultherapy and have written a paper on the safety of this technique.

Fillers and botox can be done around the time of Ultherapy, but we find that there may be a little bit more bruising and swelling when these are done around that time.  If we do botox and fillers on the same day as Ultherapy, we usually do the Ultherapy first and then the fillers/botox afterwards as our patients are numbed and comfortable by that time.  Good luck!

Ultherapy is a noninvasive technology for skin lifting, fillers add volume where needed, and Botox relaxes hyperactive muscles that cause wrinkles so each does something different. Combining them often gives a more complete and balanced result. Keep in mind however that the full results from Ultherapy take about 3 months to appear, just about the time when the Botox is wearing off.

Hi Glendale,You have asked a very good question, one that many of our patients ask us prior to Ultherapy.  We actually recommend that our patients have Botox in their forehead and crow's feet area (sometimes even in their neck) a few days before having their Ulthera treatment.  Studies have shown that there is improved collagen production and healing when the forehead does not move after ablative laser procedures, the same is thought to be the case with Ulthera.  As for fillers, fortunately the areas that we treat with Ulthera are mostly areas that do not normally receive fillers.  We prefer to use fillers after Ulthera, and avoid treating directly over filled areas.  The only filler that we do treat over is Sculptra which works synergistically with Ulthera.Our physicians perform all Ulthera treatments to insure our patients of the most effective, safe, and  consistant results.Be well.Dr. P

Good morning, Yes Ultherapy and Botox can be performed together. In fact they compliment each other. Please visit our website below. I personally perform the treatment and use oral or IM sedation. Using sedation allows me to be more aggressive and achieve better results.Please call for our Spring specials.Yours, Dr. R

There are 1-2 papers that have been published which show that Ultherapy results are improved with injectable fillers - they seem to increase innate collagen production, meaning that Ultherapy done with fillers has a better outcome than Ultherapy alone. When they use it with Sculptra, these authors have coined the term 'Sculptherapy" to promote this type of practice. Read the Ultherapy book provided on the link below: 

Yes, patients can undergo an Ultherapy treatment after receiving Botox or fillers. Ultherapy will not compromise the results of your injectable treatment. 

Yes you can.  Ultherapy can be done after Botox and fillers but you will want to wait for at least a week after the Botox is done and about a month after the fillers are injected.  This is to prevent any potential breakdown of the product.
