What is the required waiting period after Restylane before performing microdermabrasion?

The recommended waiting period after administering Restylane before performing microdermabrasion is two weeks. This time frame allows for the initial integration of the dermal filler into the tissue, reducing the risk of complications such as swelling, bruising, or displacement of the filler during the microdermabrasion process.

During the first couple of weeks after receiving Restylane, the injected area may still be sensitive and adjusting, so waiting ensures that the skin is in a stable condition. This precaution is crucial for maintaining the desired aesthetic outcomes and for ensuring patient comfort and safety. Performing microdermabrasion too soon could interfere with the product's placement and effectiveness, which is why the two-week interval is widely accepted as a best practice.
