Does Excel V Beam laser effect filler?

barfcake2017Apr 23, 2019
I would like to get Excel V Beam laser for treatment of broken capillaries on the face as well as spots of redness. However, I'm concerned this will effect the filler/ botox I have in my face. I have it placed in cheeks, under-eyes and nasolabial folds. I also have botox in my masseter muscles. Filler was injected 4 months ago. Botox will be placed in masseter's about a week before I have this laser treatment. Should there be any issues with filler/botox melting based on the timelines indicated?
