A few months ago, i was injected with Botox in my masseter. I immediately felt sick. My blood pressure was taken and was 142/92. A few weeks later i was injected with a second round of Voluma and had the same symptoms. Today, when getting my TB test, I quickly got hypertensive. I am an esthetic nurse and have asked around with no one having any knowledge of this. I'm heavily tattooed, not afraid of needles and in great health. I really don't want to stop getting injections because of this.

Answer: Hypertension with mid-face filler and or wrinkle relaxer?
Hi,Great question, let me see if I can help clarify!It absolutely is! And in some cases (which can be determined based on full exam) the result can be extremely great. Best of luck with your cosmetic procedure!
Without a visual, it is difficult to evaluate,
however, for deep lines or wrinkles you have several options.
1) Dermal fillers: Fillers literally “fill” the line or wrinkle to smooth it out, and results are immediate with minimal downtime. Fillers volumize the area to create a smooth surface.
2)...
The cause of your nasal indentation is unclear, if there was not a cyst, pimple, or other inflammation in the area. Depending on your examination, a few microdroplets of injectable silicone may lead to permanent improvement. Hope this helps! Dr Joseph
