Can You Get Botox & Filler the Same Day As A Spray Tan?

Can You Get a Spray Tan, Botox, and Filler on the Same Day?

It’s not recommended to get a spray tan on the same day as Botox or dermal fillers. Here’s why:

Spray Tan & Botox: Why You Should Wait

Botox needs time to settle into the muscles, and applying a spray tan too soon can interfere with results.

  • Botox typically takes 4 to 6 hours to settle, but doctors recommend avoiding touching or rubbing the treated area for at least 24 hours.

  • A spray tan involves spraying, rubbing, and wiping, which could move the Botox and lead to uneven results.

  • With botox comes injection points that need to stay clean until closed.

Best Practice: Wait at least 24 hours after Botox before getting a spray tan.

Spray Tan & Fillers: Timing Matters

Dermal fillers (like Juvederm, Restylane) work by adding volume beneath the skin.

  • Fillers need 24 to 48 hours to fully integrate and settle.

  • Spray tanning too soon may cause irritation or contamination, as fillers require minimal skin disruption.

  • The pressure from wiping off excess tan or massaging in moisturizer may move the filler or cause swelling.

Best Practice: Wait at least 24 to 48 hours after fillers before getting a spray tan.

What’s the Best Order for Scheduling?

If you want both Botox, fillers, and a spray tan, follow this ideal schedule:


🗓 Day 1 → Get Botox & Fillers
🗓 Day 2 to 3 → Let them settle
🗓 Day 3 to 4 → Get your Spray Tan
