Flu like symptoms after dermafiller.

Question

Please tell me this is normal. I feel week, my body aches same as flu even withdraw type aches as someone else described per my description. I just feel sick. I think getting this done with little to no sleep in about a month due to extreme unfortunate circumstances in my life. Because of this maybe my body just couldn't handle something like this considering the pressure I been putting on it??

Hello, and thanks for your question. Sorry to hear you have not been feeling well.This would be an unusual reaction to filler (Juvederm?). I recommend following up with the physician who did your injection. Best, Dr. Frucht.

This maybe totally unrelated to the filler. Fillers such as Perlane, Restylane, Juvederm and other HA fillers all go through a strict testing and regulation process, flu like symptoms are common with immunisations, but extremely uncommon with HA fillers. This maybe co-incidental, however your specialist injector will assist you and can diagnose if this is just a passing flu, or an extremely unusual reaction ( very unlikely). All the bestDr Davin LimLaser and aesthetic dermatologistBrisbane, Australia.
