Spiroronolactone and use of Restylane
We have not found any relationship between use of this medication and bruising. While there are many agents which promote bleeding the most common are aspirin, Arbil, and other NSAIDS. Restylane is made up of hyaluronic acid which is in our collagen. This should not be affected by this drug.

Hyaluronic acid filler (i.e. Restylane, Juvederm, etc.) and medication
Hi Ambler,
It is good that you are cognizant of which medications you are taking and it is important that you discuss these (including over-the-counter and herbal) medications with your physician. However, there is no contraindication to receiving injections of a hyaluronic acid filler (like Restylane, Juvederm, etc.) and being on spironolactone.
Good luck and take care!

Restylane while on Spironolactone
Spironolactone does not increase your likelihood of bruising. We give patients a list of medications to avoid prior to their injection with Fillers to minimize their risk of bruising, but spironolactone is not one of them.

We have not seen that Restylane's effectiveness or longevity is affected by Spironolactone. There should not be any affect on the Spironolactone's metabolism by the Restylane. Restylane is a hyaluronic acid, which we all have in our dermis in the skin. It is a mucopolysaccharide and binds water.

It is always important to let your injecting physician know all medications that you take, including prescriptions, OTC meds, vitamins and herbal supplements.

Spironolactone is not a contraindication to Restylane injections
There is no problem getting Restylane injections while taking spironolactone. It should not affect bruising.
Things that do affect bruising are aspirin, NSAIDS like Advil, Motrin, Nuprin, etc, fish oil, vitamin E, gingko biloba, and ginseng among others. You want to avoid these for two weeks prior to the procedure.
