Can derma filler cause an infection if I have Staphylococcus aureus?

Asked By:annam1234 in Boston, MA

Four years ago I have a breast lift procedure and my breast didn't want to heal for a year. It's was horrible experience and I was diagnosed with staphylococus aureus. I have a small depressed scar on my shoulder and I want to inject one of the derma filler into it. I would like to know if derma filler will be safe for me ? Maybe botox will be better option ?
