Can you please tell me how long you would have to wait to get juvederm after a wisdom tooth removal?

Thank you for your question.  I would recommended waiting anywhere from two to four weeks after undergoing wisdom tooth removal before having Juvederm injected. The first reason for waiting is, you are placed at a higher risk of infection.  And the second is, swelling of the mouth and face can distort your normal appearance and animation making it difficult for the injector to make an accurate assessment.

There are two considerations to getting Juvederm after wisdom teeth removal.  The first is risk of infection.  For that you should wait two weeks after your procedure before getting Juvederm.  The second consideration is that many patients have swelling after wisdom teeth removal.  You will want to wait until that swelling has resolved so that your injector has a clear picture of how best to treat your concerns.
