Can someone with Lupus get botox or fillers?

There is no reason why someone with lupus cannot get botox or fillers, I suggest treatmend when the disease is not active.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for your question.  Patients with lupus are still candidates for botox and fillers.  Be sure to inform your injector of your full medical history.  

Lupus is not a contraindication to having Botox or fillers injected as long as it is under control. Do not let anyone inject filler into an active lupus lesion. Also, be sure to tell your injector your medical history as well as any medications you are taking so that appropriate precautions can be taken before treatment. Always see a board-certified dermatologist for any Botox or filler injections.

Thanks for your question!  There is no absolute contraindication to having these treatments when you are properly managing your auto-immune condition.  Do your research and be sure to work with a well trained and experienced physician who understands your medical condition.

Thanks for your question. Lupus is a tough disease that can affect your skin and joints, among other things. If it's under control, it's not a contraindication for these treatments. If you're on anti-inflammatories, you can have an increased chance of bruising but that's about it as long as standard precautions are followed. Good luck!
