Can a Hepatitis B Carrier Have Botox or Restylane?

March 27, 2009
Asked By:yny in Singapore

I am a Hepatitis B carrier on Baraclude medication (Entecavir 0.5mg). I need to know, am I a suitable candidate for Botox, Restylane, or any other semi-permanent cosmetic injections? Will they affect my liver function? I do not want to die looking good. Please help. Thank you.
