I had Perioral Dermatitis about one year ago. Is it safe for me to have temporary lip fillers ?

Question

My Perioral dermatitis is gone but sometimes I have redness around lips and using Skinoren 20% cream , is there any possibility that after lip filler rash will back ?

Thank you for
your question kesaria. I understand your concern. Fillers are used to
restore lost volume in and enhance the appearance of the face. Having perioral dermatitis is not a contraindication to having fillers in the lips. With any condition recurrence is possible with or without filler treatments. Please
consult with a doctor for specific recommendations.  Good luck!

Thanks for your question. I do not think that filler would make peripheral dermatitis and you do not need any prophylactic treatment before the injection.

Vicki J. Levine, MD · Answer

filler should not cause perioral dermatitis period I guess if you wanted to be super cautious, the doctor could put you on an antibiotic, such as doxycycline before doing the injections. Honestly, I don't really think that would be necessary.
