Combine botox with fillers ?

Is something that is highly advisable for different regions, for instance botox for the forehead and for restylane for the nasolabial fold. I do not recommend to combine it for the same region, as often requested for forehaed wrinkles who maybe longstanding and deep and may very well need both botox as well as a filler.

Nevertheless in the forehead it is preferable to first apply botox and secondarily treat with for instance restylane, because it is first advisable to see how the effective the botox is before “filling” the wrinkle. This avoids overdoing and gives the botox a chance to show its full effect.

It is by no means wrong to provide botox for instance with restylane, but stepping the botox treatment up can save considerable amount of substance.
