Is It Ok to Get Facial Filler (Juvederm or Perlane) the Day After a Dental Crown/Filling? Is It Ok to Get Facial Filler (Juvederm or Perlane) the Day After a Dental procedure, such as a crown or filling? I will be getting novocaine injections during the dental visit. Thank you.

A: Facial Fillers after Dental Treatment?

Thank you for the question.

The use of facial fillers is not contraindicated unless you have residual perioral swelling and the fillers are going to be used around the mouth. If so, wait until the swelling has subsided before having the fillers injected.

Best wishes.

Can Juvaderm Fillers Cause Spider Veins Around the Nasolabial Folds? I had juvaderm fillers for first time around my nasolabial folds 3 1/2 weeks ago. They worked well but i am left with tiny red spidery veins and a bit of redness which wasnt there before. Will they go naturally?

A: Tiny red spidery veins after Juvederm treatment

Although rare, it is possible to get dilation of tiny capillary blood vessels in the area where a filler such as Juvederm has been injected. Once present it is usually permanent but can easily be removed with a VeinWave or laser treatment.

	“Juverderm Under Eyes - San Diego, CA” I had Juverderm injections under eyes 6 days ago. The result for me is SUBTLE. I hardly can tell the difference. The Dr. must have used a little over half the syringe. I only bruised a little,noticeably from the needle mark on my right under eye. I also bought Arnica & immediately took it after. Best to take it a few days before. See my Photos below. It's subtle perhaps because I... more
	“I Will Travel to See Her - Encinitas, CA” I was a patient of Dr. Palm's when she practiced in Chicago. Before she left we did a final round of fillers and botox. It looked amazing! When I needed a touch up I visited another Chicago area dermatologist and was not happy with the result. My best friend wanted filler in the lips and botox for the first time. I knew if she wanted to be 100% satisfied we needed to visit Dr. Palm in... more
	“Juvederm in Lips - San Diego, CA” I just had my first treatment of Juvederm in my lips. I LOVE it! My Dr. used numbing cream about 10 minutes before and I barely felt a thing. I was so nervous and it ended up being as easy as botox. I don't seem to have a lot of swelling - at least I hope not because I love the way my lips look right now. I took Arnica for four days prior and will continue to take it for a couple of days.... more
	“10 Years Younger! - San Diego, CA” I had three syringes of juvederm 2 weeks ago. I did this because I had hollows under my eyes, NL folds and marionettes. Recently I had 2 fraxels and my skin was looking good but couldn't deal with deep wrinkles. We did the eyes first. Just a little ice under the eye and then the injections. Painless! I had a couple little dots where the needle went in but no bruising. My hollows... more
	“Expert at Creating Youthfulness with...” To add lost volume, which I swore I would not do because I thought it looked weird on most people. It looks great if done by the right Doctor. more
	“Disguise an Unsightly Cleft Lip! -...” Am 37 and tired of trying to hide the severe asymmetry and scarring with heavy makeup that never works. Just broke down into tears upon seeing the immediate Juvederm results. So THIS is what I would have looked like if I'd never been born with a deformity?! This is so much better than going through another reconstructive surgery. Next time I might even have a few wrinkles filled now that I... more
	“Juvederm for Nasolabial Folds” This is the second time I've had Juvederm injected and I wanted to give some advice that I don't see frequently enough on this site. This is not like having a manicure. There will be downtime, so don't expect to go from the doctor's office straight to lunch with the girls. There will be swelling, small bruises at the injection sites and some soreness for days. Ice for about 3hrs after the... more
	“Juvederm Really Worked Well in my...” I had Juvederm injected into my "smile lines" or nasal-labial folds and it made a huge difference! I am 34 and I started noticing the lines more and more and decided that I think I'm too young to have that so, I did something about it!Dr K did a fantastic job and I noticed a huge difference. They are almost completely filled in. Plus, Juvederm lasts a long time more
	“I Look Like I Visited a Time Machine...” I wanted to look younger, but I wasn't quite ready for plastic surgery. Because I didn't have enough fat for a transfer to my face, the doctor recommended Juverderm and the results couldn't be better.Over the course of a few months, my face was transformed. Since the change was gradual, no one knew I'd had work done but I've had numerous comments about how much younger more
	“Wish I Had Done This Sooner” I have thought about improving my apperance for years now and finally after a lot of research took the plunge. After reading on here I nearly read myself right out of doing it. I took all my questions (many) with me to the Doctor who I research throughly( also saw him on TV local news) and have had Botox done by him prior.I had two syringes for my severe nasolabial fold, creases in upper lip... more
	“Juvederm for Cheek Hollows” I had juvederm plus injected in the cheeks to remove the hollows. I am going on 51 and I thought a little botox along with Juvederm would help.This is my third day and I still have slight swelling butI am waiting a week or so to see the true improvements. I have a follow up appointment in two weeks.I am going on three days and I am wondering whether I can drink a glass of more
	“Juvaderm Under Eyes for Tear Troughs...” First off I had to put a deposit down at this doctors office (which should have been a red flag right away) just for a consultation.My whole experience was odd, he gave me a lidocane shot twice which made my face balloon up right away and said that was normal. Then proceeded to have me lying down flat and then stood behind me like he was going to give me facial to administer the injections. I... more
	“Love It!!” I am only 29 and had nasolabial folds that really bothered me. I had juvederm injected during another surgical procedure and when I woke up, I immediately could see the difference and was happy. I hardly had any bruising. In fact, I don't know if the marks I woke up with were from the marker or the injection site because by the time I washed my face, which was about a day later, they were gone. more
	“Pleased So Far” An hour and a half a counting. I just had one syringe of Juvederm injected into my nasolabial folds and the downturned corners beneath my lips. So far I'm pleased: the results look natural. The skin looks smoother (but no freakishly smooth) and I look refreshed and about 3-4 years younger. I'm 45. The injections were tolerable. The doctor numbed me beforehand with a topical gel and then used... more
	“Juvederm Works if Injected Correctly...” My procedure was done way too superficially and now 2 months later I still have the "tyndall" effect. One eye looks like I got punched. If injected correctly, it would have solved my problem tear trough hollows. I may attempt again with someone else once the "logs" under my eyes dissipate. My sister had the same procedure done and had a wonderful result. more
	“Juvederm Fixed Hollows Under my Eyes” I have developed dark hollows under my eyes in the tear trough area. I look tired no matter how much makeup I use. If I gain weight, my face looks better, so for the last several years I've had to make the classic choice for a woman my age: either my face looks good or my butt looks good. Finally I found the answer. Juvederm for the under eye area. After having injections of Juvederm... more
	“Not Sure Yet!! Bruised and Swollen” I got injected with juvederm into my above my upper lip 2 days ago and also radiesse into the naso/folds. Currently I feel like a duck. My upper lip is either very swollen or she used to much. I know I only got one syringe of juvederm which my friend said is normal but my lid feels so big! I am severely bruised which I have tried to cover with makeup but to no avail. I am also taking... more
	“Awesome!” I have been debated fillers for over a year but have always been so nervous about getting trout mouth or duck lipped. My lips are naturally very thin and from pictures I have always seen it looked like people with already full lips looked better with juvederm. I consulted with a few different doctors but decided to go with a doctor after reading a review on this site. He works at {edited}... more
	“SO WORTH IT!” I am 26 years old and have had Juvederm like 5 times in the last 2 months. The results are unreal! I did not want that fake lip look so I get more in the middle bottom lip and a little on my top middle. I suggest staying away from the corners unless you want the duck look which is really ugly! Restylane is just as good and comes in half of CC. I'll be getting Juverderm forever unless something... more
	“My Eyes Look Horrible!!” I loved Juvederm in my lips so I had it put under my eyes. It resulted in my undereye dark circles being more prominent and I now have eye bags. When I went in to get some of the product removed, the doctor told me I needed more, not less. That's when I developed the large eye bags. I've now been in 2 more times to get hyrolonic acid injected to remove it. I now have partial bags and... more
	“Loved the Results” My experience with Juvederm in the NL and under eye area for bags has been nothing but amazing. I had a little yellow bruise under one eye and swelling that lasted three days. After 5 days my eyes have no swelling and the slight bruise is all but gone and my under eye bags have disappeared. My doctor showed me a dozen pictures of patients that he had done the same procedure on 6 mos.... more
	“Totally WORTH IT!” I went with a girlfriend and we both are so happy with our doctor and results. Here is my experience: My friend initially said she was going to do this, and I said "NO!!!! Don't do it!" I was apprehensive as year ago, I had gone to a well-respected San Diego plastic surgeon for a lip injection, which took him 10 minutes and cost me $500, only for the upper lip. He shot me... more
	“Loved the Results, Hated the Experience” I have seen a common theme: juvederm is not the best alternative for under the eyes! My Doc said the molecules a bigger than restylane - maybe that is why there is excess swelling and bruising?! Especially given that the eye area contains thinner and more sensitive skin. I used restylane for over a year, and although loved the results, found that after two months, my face seemed to fall... more
