Can you get both treatments on the same day?
The short answer: probably not but that It depends on your desired goals.
Generally, Botox and Laser CO2 do not take place on the same day for the same area. However, for some situations, both treatments can be done on the same day-If each treatment is done in a separate area.
For example:
