Manchester Juvederm doctors

You should be fine to have dental fillings done a week before you get Juverm.  Just be sure to avoid products such as ibuprofin (Motrin) and naproxyn (Aleve), which might increase your chances of bruising.  Use acetaminophen (Tylenol) if you need a pain reliever.  Also, be sure to use cold compresses intermittently throughout the rest of the day you get your Juvederm.

I actually tell my patients to avoid dental work for several weeks after they have fillers anywhere around the mouth.  I worry that excessive retraction on the cheeks may affect the placement or longevity of the filler.  This may sound overly cautious to some, but why take the risk in your investment?

There are lots of people doing injections of fillers (such as Juvederm) as well as Botox who probably shouldn't be. The reasons are simple - it comes down to the fact that it can be lucrative, and there is little regulation of what goes on in private medical offices and spas. Thus, you find medical doctors trained in Pediatrics, Gynecology, Emergency Medicine and others, as well as non-physicians, all jumping on board.  It is incumbent on the consumer to vet them out and "buyer beware". I feel that one is best served (and will get the best result) by having their injections done by a physician, or their closely supervised P.A.or nurse, in one of the following specialties : General Plastic Surgery, Facial Plastic Surgery/Otolaryngology, Dermatology, or Oculoplastic Surgery.

Generally speaking, Juvederm is not the best choice for crow's feet. Botox/Dysport/Xeomin work well here, as does radiofrequency skin tightening and some lasers.   

There is no reason you cannot get Juvederm (or Restylane or Radiesse) injections to fill nasolabial folds if you have RA.  One caveat is that NSAID's can lead to increased temporary bruising after filler injections, so be sure to let your physician injector know if you are taking one of these medications for your RA.  Also, if your immune system is suppressed and you are prone to shingles or cold sores, get a prescription to premedicate with an antiviral, such as Valtrex.
