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

Autoimmune disease, by itself, is not a contraindication to hyaluronic acid filler treatments. I agree with Dr. Andrade that you should discuss this without your Rheumatologist prior to treatment. Lastly, if you're concerned about midface volume loss Voluma, rather than Juvederm Ultra/ Ultra Plus, is a superior product. I hope this information is helpful for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

Juvederm is generally very safe, even for someone that has an autoimmune disorder. Juvederm is largely made up of hyaluronic acid which is a product that naturally occurs in the body. Speak to your injector about any concerns before treatment, and you should talk to your doctor first to make sure Juvederm is okay for you.

I have used Juvederm for a patient with autoimmune disease but I first checked with her rheumatologist to make sure the disease was well-controlled, and did some research to ensure there were no contraindications.  Every person is unique so it would be best for you to involve all of your own physicians and make sure they think it is reasonable in your situation.

Thank you for your question. Juvederm consists of
hyaluronic acid which does not have an effect or trigger auto immune disorders.
If you are currently taking any medications, I advise you to speak with your
doctor first before receiving Juvederm, or have history of allergies or
allergic reactions used to make the hyaluronic acid (HA) in these products. If
your doctor clears you, we will be happy to evaluate you for fillers, please

Yes, I have done Juvederm for
exactly this problem in a woman with sarcoidosis. I have also injected other
patients with autoimmune diseases without problems but I am always watching for
any problems and making sure the patient knows to contact me if anything
happens, just in case.
