After a microdermabrasion treatment, how long should a client wait before receiving Restylane injections?

24 hours
1-2 days
3-4 days
1 week

The correct answer is: 1-2 days

The appropriate waiting period after microdermabrasion before a client receives Restylane injections is 1-2 days. This timeframe allows the skin to recover from the microdermabrasion treatment, during which the outer layer of skin is exfoliated and can be left sensitive or slightly inflamed. Waiting for a period of 1-2 days helps ensure that the skin has settled enough to minimize any potential adverse reactions to the injections. Receiving Restylane too soon after a microdermabrasion treatment may increase the risk of irritation or complications, as the skin may still be in a delicate state. Additionally, the healing process initiated by microdermabrasion is essential for ensuring optimal results from the subsequent dermal filler treatments. Choosing to wait longer than 1-2 days can often be unnecessary, as standard practice suggests that a shorter duration is typically sufficient for the skin to return to a more stable state, allowing the client to move forward with their desired treatment efficiently.
