Hyaluronic acid filler during breastfeeding?

November 7, 2013
Asked By:Fia77

I Know the risk related to Injections in general and that the lidocaine is the anestetic that is included into fillers that is dangerous for my baby, so considering that jaluronic acid is a natural substance my question is: is it possible to have a lidocaine free filler during a brestfeeding period? Are there other active substances included that can be dangerous too? the quantity 'and speed' of absorption are related to the risk for the baby? I thank You so much for your reply. Best Regards
