Can lip biting when kissing affect Juverderm filler?

Question

I had juverderm injected into my lips about 3 months ago and my boyfriend and I were kissing recently and he started lip biting (in an intimate way- I know this sounds strange haha) but I was wondering whether it could cause my filler to dissolve or affect my lips? Please help :)

Ron Shelton, MD · Answer

The Juvederm filler adds normal hyaluronic acid moisture into our lips and we already have this normal existing product in our lips. It becomes integrated in the normal lip tissue so biting should not make it change, as one wouldn't expect biting to affect the normal shape of a lip into which filler had never been injected.

I haven't had any reports from our patients about problems rising from this but to be safe best to wait a few days after the injections in my opinion.
