If you are interested in receiving both injectables and laser skin rejuvenation, we can help you devise a treatment plan to achieve amazing results that last.
Answer: Lasers and Fillers and Botox -- Can Be Done Together These can all be done on the same day together there is no restriction in combination treatment. Best, Dr. Emer.
Ideally, Botox should be injected at least two weeks before laser treatment, so the new collagen is remodeled into smooth skin. Laser treatments do not “melt” fillers so they can be injected two weeks before laser or at least two weeks after the laser treatment once the skin has healed.
Other than skin sensitivity, there's no problem maintaining your Botox treatment plan while also starting your laser hair removal journey.
Yes, it is perfectly fine to have IPL and a Botox treatment on the same day. In my practice, we generally prefer to do the IPL first lying down and then do the Botox in an upright position.

Injectables (Botox, Dysport, Dermal Fillers, Sculptra) should not be done for at least 2 weeks prior to laser treatments.
When it comes to achieving radiant, youthful skin, a one-size-fits-all approach rarely delivers the best results. That's why combining treatments such as Botox and BBL Photofacials can deliver enhanced and powerful anti-aging results.
If you are taking any other medicine, please inform your doctor before getting a Botox injection. Interactions with antibiotics, blood thinners, muscle relaxants, sleeping pills, cold or allergy medicine, bronchodilators, and many other prescriptions and over the counter drugs have been reported.
At LaserAway, we offer two of the most popular neuromodulators: Botox and Xeomin.
While sun exposure is known for aging the skin and increasing a patient's risk for skin cancer, it is not known to interfere with Botox treatments. However, sun exposure can increase the need for cosmetic injectables such as Botox to maintain a youthful appearance.
You can also use the two treatments in concert with each other. While Botox can treat deep wrinkles, laser facials wont have as dramatic an effect on them. And while Botox will make you look younger by relaxing wrinkles, it wont freshen your skin texture and give you a youthful glow.
“Most laser treatments don't penetrate nearly deep enough to affect any fillers which have already been injected,” explains Dr. Hanson. “Still, many doctors will recommend a one-to-two week break between treatments to allow for recovery and any swelling to subside.
If you do plan to have both a laser procedure like Fraxel and Botox performed, I prefer they be separated by a day with Botox on the first day followed by laser the next day. Your best results when combining such procedures would be inject Botox and wait for its maximal effects 10-14 days later, then have Laser.
Laser resurfacing must be done during a separate appointment 2-3 weeks before or after you receive BOTOX® or JUVÉDERM® fillers. The heat from the laser can affect and compromise the injectables in your face, therefore, eliminating their effects if performed too closely together.
Again, stick to hyaluronidase injections by an expert practitioner and stop trying to be too smart and playing - literally - with fire. Regarding botox, RF microneedling is totally the wrong way to go about it: it has no specific action against botox.

BOTOX resistance is a situation in which a patient either has built up antibodies against the botulinum toxin, or happens to metabolize the BOTOX drug exceptionally quickly. As a result, for these patients BOTOX injections provide underwhelming results, a very short-lived effect, or no effect at all.
Aside from immune-related causes of Botox failure, other reasons Botox may fail include: Improper product handling: Botox providers should keep Botox products refrigerated at temperatures recommended by Allergan. Failure to store Botox properly can cause Botox to degrade and become less effective.
The Pico laser works by sending ultra-short pulses of energy – without heat – to targeted problem areas. The laser's impact on the skin is intense, shattering the problem skin pigment or particles. These are then eliminated naturally by the body.
Laser hair removal can be safely combined with other skin treatments, such as IPL Photofacial, Chemical Peels, Microneedling, and Botox and Fillers, but it requires careful planning, professional guidance, and proper timing.
The answer is absolutely not! Laser treatments like hair removal or BBL target specific layers of the skin and won't affect the deeper layers where dermal fillers are placed. In fact, they can work hand in hand to enhance your overall skincare and appearance!
