Can I have dermal fillers if I have hypertrophic scars?

Thank you for posting your question. Since administering dermal fillers and neuromodulators is done using a fine-tipped needle or a blunt-tipped microcannula, subsequent scarring should not be a concern.
Administration with a blunt-tipped cannula provides a needless option for injecting filler into the face. With this technique, tissue is pushed to the sides to cause less trauma than a standard needle. I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified injector who can assess your concerns and medical history to suggest the best option for you.

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan. It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hi and thanks for your question! Fillers are injected with a needle or cannula which are microscopic insertion points. The history of hypertrophic scars should not affect any future filler placement which should not leave any scars. Best of luck!

The injections for fillers and neuromodulators like Dysport use fine needles. They will not lead to scarring, even if you have a history of hypertrophic scars. See an expert injector for treatment.
