Can lip fillers cause perioral dermatitis?

gk14Jul 10, 2017
Had 0.5ml juvederm smile on 18/5. 4 days later developed patch of dry skin on chin with tiny spots in it. Thought nothing of it, presumed stress had caused a breakout. Since then rash has spread and formed perioral dermatitis which is really upsetting me. Could there be a link? I usually have good skin, rarely get spots. Have seen GP, he was very unhelpful and I can't afford to see a derm outside of the NHS.
