Restylane lip fillers; I had 0.5ml of lip filler 3 days ago and since got a really bad sore throat and swollen gums?

Thanks for your query. Restylane fillers don’t cause sore throat and swolen gums, it could be just a coincidence. It is okay to take in antibiotics and ibuprofen as it doesn’t interfere with the injection. Hope it  Helps.All The Best

There is no reason why your gums or throat would get affected from lip filler alone. This is likely coincidental but please speak to your physician.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for sharing your question. You should see your doctor. You might have a coincidental infection. Feel better.  Good luck,

Thank you for question. Your sore throat and swollen gums are not related to your Restylane injections. However, it is okay to take antibiotics and ibuprofen as it will not interfere with your filler. I recommend having a consultation with your doctor for an examination to determine the cause. Best of Luck!

Hello, and thanks for your question. Sorry to hear you've been having trouble after your injection. This would be a very unusual reaction to Restylane injection. I recommend following up with your physician to determine what's going on. In order to determine the best treatment plan for you, I recommend an in-person consultation with a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon. Best of luck, Dr. Frucht.   

Although I am certain you feel there is a connection between the events there is no reason that these problems can be attributed to your lip injection and they should subside very soon
