Can I still get lip injections if just my skin develops dermatitis?

September 29, 2019
Asked By:Cautious Belle in Denver, CO

I was diagnosed with dermatitis in May by a dermatologist I no longer see. I've received lip injections in the past with no problem, but this last time some was injected in the skin under the corner of my lip. Within a week and a half I developed either rosacea or dermatitis around my mouth and up to and around my nostrils. Is it likely this will occur if the next time I avoid any injections into the skin?
