Restalyne and CPAP mask for Sleep Apnea, can I get if I sleep with a full face mask?

nat33usAug 14, 2017
I need restalyne around my mouth and smile lines going from nose to mouth however I have Sleep Apnea and sleep with a CPAP machine. My mask is the main culprit causing these lines. I sleep with a full face mask. Can I get fillers or will the mask displace it over time? Or would I benefit from a series of Microcurrent Facials ? I had dysport for forehead, bunny lines and around eyes and the sleep mask did not mess it up.

Having a few lumps is a risk of lip injections. However, your lumpiness looks pretty significant. I suggest a second opinion, with an in-person examination and a different injector to review what has been done.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO
