Optical neuritis 10 years ago and face treatments such as Botox and fillers. Is it safe?

While there shouldn't be any contraindications to Botox or Filler it would be best to get the clearance from your treating physician before proceeding with injectables.

Thank you for your question. Botox is generally a safe procedure so I suggest that you move forward and consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon to determine your candidacy.
Best wishes,

Yes, you can have Botox/fillers/pdo nova threads after your optical neuritis. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for sharing your excellent question.  If you have been fully healed for the last 10 years without any reactive flares from your neuritis you are safe to try a neuromodulator like Botox as well as dermal fillers.  Please be sure to see an ASPS board certified plastic surgeon in consultation to discuss in greater detail. 

Fillers and Botox shouldn't affect ischemic optic neuritis, but to be sure, I would check with a neuro-ophthalmologist. You want to the all the precautions possible. That said, fillers for the face should be not a problem if staying away from the eyelids. I would be very wary of injections of fillers in the frown lines and corners of the nose as well, however. Arteries in these areas can also affect the optic arteries.A good skin care system and lasers should be OK also if proper protection is taken with eye shields, and with an experience doctor or technician. Thank you for your question, and best of luck to you.

Thank you for
your question barbaravas. I am sorry to hear about your situation. Botox is a
purified protein used to address wrinkles associated with facial expression. Having certain conditions such as myasthenia gravis and Lambert-Eaton syndrome is a contraindication to having Botox treatments. Optic neuritis is not in this category. Please
consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!

With a history of only one episode of optic neuritis 10 years ago there is probably no indication that this is going to be an ongoing problem.  Multiple episodes in one or both eyes can correlate with the development of Multiple Sclerosis or MS. 
Therefore, cosmetic procedures, including botox and fillers, are  safe.   I would not hesitate to recommend these minimally invasive treatments to a patient with only one episode in the distant past. 
I am not a fan of threads.  Although results seem good initially, they often give an unnatural pull to the face or neck and are not long lasting.
