Can Juvederm injection be taken if one has a history of auto immune disorder?

February 7, 2015
Asked By:Peacheschnapps in Newark, TX

I was on steroids for one year in 2013 due to Sarcoidosis. I was given steroids for that which caused moon face but later when puffiness dropped i had saggy skin and hollow cheeks. I am absolutely fine now but look bad due to hollow cheeks n sagging skin. In my case can I take Juvederm injections for fuller cheeks. I hope it won't trigger the disease
