do you believe that heating will melt
your fit fillers let's see so today
we're talking about one of the most
common questions in a training
especially if we're talking about
devices people say how long after my
filler can I have a device treatment the
most common ones of course radio
frequency lasers IPL which is a broad
spectrum of light that's filtered and
then we have of course micro needling
with radiofrequency that's very common
these days as well so we'll talk about
that whole realm of products and fillers
so hyaluronic acid fillers are typically
after they're made and before they get
to us have been heated and sterilized so
it's not going to dissolve or melt those
products hyaluronic acids and then if
you go to other products that we might
consider fillers such as calcium
hydroxyl apatite PMMA like bellyful or
plla like Sculptra sculptors of polymer
those in NP MMA particularly very high
temperatures they can be subject to it's
not going to melt them and of course
it's not going to melt calcium doesn't
melt your bone and so it doesn't melt
the product and a lot of people say well
when can I treat it depends on a few
factors it is not that simple and it's
why your provider will determine the
time after that you can have those
treatments first of all a lot if you
micro needle and they can go fairly deep
now with radiofrequency the heating is
not gonna be the problem but you are
creating channels and potentially if you
put a filler in and immediately after do
that theoretically maybe before that
filler can integrate with the tissue it
can move through those channels a little
bit we don't really see that that's
that's more of a theoretical problem but
that's why some people might wait a few
weeks for integration to take place a
lot of products integrate differently
over time but that's sometimes two to
four weeks so that would be one
that you might delay an injectable RF
now I just said that things like
high-frequency ultrasound or
radiofrequency they're not going to melt
it either they get to about 60 degrees
max and fillers can take up to 120
degrees and so if you'd look at lasers
like co2 then you're up near a hundred
degrees ablative lasers even those don't
reach it however the caveat is some of
these devices also have suction and
massage and I think that plays a role
because we know from 15-20 years ago
when we didn't quite know do we massage
these or do we not or doing massage them
if people did that oftentimes especially
using that bolus technique they'd come
back in a few weeks and see nothing the
filler never went away it just dispersed
so some of these radiofrequency machines
it's not that we believe it's going to
dissolve it but the massage or the
vibration or the needles might disperse
it heat first relax them for 15 minutes
let them cool down do the fillers and
won't affect the Botox either but do the
Botox and fillers after do the threads
after and at that point then it gives
you another six to six weeks to three
months before you need to redo any of
those products so I hope that helps give
a better understanding of it but just
purely heating over these products will
not melt dissolve or make or remove them
