Would thumb sucking after Juvederm lip fillers hurt the result?

November 24, 2016
Asked By:JustSomeGirl22 in Columbus, OH

I have been a thumb sucker ever since I was a toddler. I have been fortunate so far that it has not caused any dental issues. I have been considering lip fillers for a while now, but I am concerned that if I started sucking my thumb in my sleep or cannot stop it will hurt the results of the fillers. Would this be something to be concerned about?
