I had Botox and Juvederm fillers administered seven days ago, and I'm seeing great results. My question is, can I continue to use my Retinol serum at night and vitamin C serum in the morning along with the rest of my daily and nightly skincare regimen?
Thank you for your question. There should be no problem with continuing your regular skin care regimen after a procedure. However, it is always a good idea to consult with your physician to ensure that your specific circumstances are taken into consideration.
Thank you for your question. You can continue with your skin care regimen as there is no reason to believe, based on the information you provided, that it is unsafe. Best of luck!
After having injectables, it is usually best to skip using topicals on the night of the treatment and resume your normal topical routine afterward.
Retinol and Vitamin C serums can be used after Botox and Juvederm treatments. It is advisable to refrain from massaging the face for about 24 hours after Botox but lightly rubbing in skincare products should be fine. Taking good care of the skin is important for optimal results from hyaluronic acid-based fillers and neuromodulators.
There are no interactions between injectable therapies and topical therapies. They work on different levels of the skin. However, you may experience soreness or swelling after injections, and Retinol and/or Vitamin C may cause some irritation. If you have sensitive skin, it's best to wait a day or two before resuming your normal skincare routine. For the best results with injectable treatments, consult with a board-certified dermatologist.
