I want to get Juvederm for under eye puffiness, and nasolabial folds. My only concern is that I have keloid prone skin. Will the injections leave tiny scars throughout my face?

Answer: Keloids are unpredictable Fernanda83, Keloids are very unpredictable and any trauma to the skin can potentially lead to keloid formation. The best predictor is previous keloids. With facial injections, one step that can be used is to perform the injections from inside the mouth. With this method, there is no external skin puncture and this may reduce the incidence of keloid formation. Good luck.

Answer: Keloid skin and filler injections
It is unlikely to develop keloids from small needle injections, however, any skin trauma may induce keloid formation, so I would be hesitant to do so.
