Thank you for your question. You should be safe to get lip filler despite your allergy to perfume and hair dye. Please consult with an experienced injector and voice your concerns.

You should be fine to have fillers despite having a sensitivity to dye and perfumes.  Please note that you may have bruising and/or swelling after filler injections. You will be see the final result from your treatment two weeks after injection.

Michael I. Echavez, MD · Answer

There should be no problem having lip fillers while being sensitive to hair dye and perfume.  A reaction should not be seen, due to the sensitivities.

Tim Neavin, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question. Filler side effects are bruising and swelling that lasts up to 2 weeks. I would advise you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon for a detailed examination to discuss all possible treatment options and what your expectations are.

Dmitriy Schwarzburg, MD · Answer

Fillers are used to contour facial features or add volume. You should be completely fine. The doctor can do a sensitivity test prior to injection as well.
