Can a patient still receive lip injections while being on their menstral cycle?

Yes you can have injections while on your menstrual cycle just be sure that you have not taken and NSAIDS for at least 48 hours prior to injection to avoid excessive bruising.

Thank you for the question.  Yes, there is no known contraindication to the injections while menstruating.  The only issue that may occur, is a slightly more robust swelling response to the injection.Please see a specialist in the face for this procedure.  

Thank you for sharing your question.  You can definitely still receive lip injections while on your menstrual cycle, it will not affect your results, but there may be increased discomfort than when not on your cycle.  Hope this helps.

Yes, you can receive lip injections while on your menstrual cycle. These fillers, (Volbella, Restylane, Juvederm) are good to create a symmetrical lip. Implants or fat are alternatives. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Hi Thatgirl143,
Great question! Yes, a patient can receive lip injections while being on their menstrual cycle. There are no established reasons that make it inadvisable to employ the treatment while menstruating. However, due to low estrogen levels, a patient who is on their menstrual cycle may feel more pain than normal. The dermal filler, Juvéderm is infused with lidocaine, a local anesthetic that is used to reduce pain and discomfort. The lidocaine will numb the area reducing any pain.
Hope this answers your question :)

Yes, it is completely fine to have your lips injected with Juvederm while menstruating. Most patients experience swelling and possibly bruising following their treatment so please be prepared. However, this should resolve within 10 days to 2 weeks. 

Thanks for your question and there should be no concern having a lip filler while on your menstrual cycle.  Swelling is common after lip injections so be prepared for this – it might be a little more here – but should not cause any concerns for getting the injections.

Dear Thatgirl143:Yes, you can still receive lip injections during your menstrual cycle.  Best wishes.

There is no correlation with your menstrual cycle and receiving botox or fillers.  Feel free to have it.
Good luck

Thank you for your question. There is no contraindication to receiving lip injections or any other injectable while menstruating. You may experience a slight increase in discomfort while on your cycle, but otherwise there is no cause for concern. It is always in your best interest to address all your questions and concerns with your injector to determine the best treatment plan for your individual needs.
