Injecting fillers after taking Lorazepam?

If you really insist on it, then your physician should be able to accommodate especially if you sign the appropriate consent forms prior to the medication. I have never had to give valium but I have heard of patients taking it prior to getting fillers. Your solution is easy, find another provider.  know of patients who prefer it

As long as you discussed the filler before, agreed on the plan, and gave consent before the sedative, I see no problem with lorazepam before your filler. Make sure to have a driver lined up, as you shouldn't drive while under the influence of sedatives.

There should be no contraindications to take an anti anxiety medication prior to filler injections if you are not allergic to the medications. That said it is rare to have someone need those medications if the procedure is done properly there should be minor pain on injection. Find a doctor that is experienced board certified injector that will be willing to prescribe the medications and review the consent forms.Good luck

Facial fillers such as Voluma or Juvederm have fabulous results but there can be some anxiety associated with getting the injections.  If you are nervous and need valium I see no contraindication in taking it before the procedure.  Please consult a board certified dermatologist with experience with facial injections and who understands you.

I'm sorry that getting fillers distresses you so much. I have a few patients who premedicate with valium before any procedures and while I find it excessive, their comfort is my main concern. And really, treating them is easier if they take their meds anyway. So if your new doctor won't give you the medication, you may simply want to find another physician because patient care and comfort should be part of our jobs..."This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and cannot be held as true medical advice, but only opinion.
