Are Botox and Juvederm safe for people with keloids?

July 9, 2019
Asked By:Orhideya in Chicago, Illinois

I am a 42 year old female. I have Extensive keloid scaring on my chest and shoulders, however I haven’t developed any new keloids in the last 10 years. I would like to smooth out my nasolabial folds with Juvederm and forehead wrinkles with Botox. Wondering how risky that would be. What would you recommend that I do? Thank you!
