Lip filler and amoxicillin?

Question

Hi! I’m currently suffering from an ear infection! My doctor has given me some antibiotics (amoxicillin) I started today and due to finish them Thursday/friday. I’m booked to have my lips re done on Saturday. Will that be okay?

My recommendation is to hold off on any cosmetic procedures until you have fully recovered. If you proceed with filler injections while you're not feeling well, the chances of encountering complications are greater.

Best of luck !

I guess you’re about to find out today. I don’t think there’s any issue with getting the fillers walk currently taking amoxicillin if you are in infection is regional, limited or no other contraindications. Ultimately it’s up to each individual provider, but it doesn’t seem like a big deal if anything you’ll have prophylactic anabiotic‘s on board for your filler shower, rarely if ever get the inspections. 
Best,
