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

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 :)
