Dear MOMSUE, Keloiods with injectable fillers is uncommon. In Medicine nothing is 100%. it would be best for you to start with something like a Hyaluronic Acid such as Restylane if you were to have an injection. Make sure you carefully monitor things and see your MD if anything suspicious is happening.With Warm Regards,Trevor M Born MD
The liklihood that a patient would develope a keloid from lip enhancement is pretty low other than potentially at the insertion point of the needle. Make sure and discuss your concerns with the appropriately board-certified physician prior to your treatment.Dr Edwards
Although keloids of the lips (that is the vermilion or red of the lips) are rare, that complication would be one potential risk in your case, given your tendency to keloid. I have injected many patients who generally tend to keloid, with needles in their normal skin for other medical reasons and have never seen keloids as a result of injecting their normal skin. I think the risk is very low, but not zero.Good luck.
I really have not heard of anyone who had keloids form as a result of a needle stick for the insertion of filler material. So I doubt that you have to worry about this possibility.
If you develop keloids on the face there would be a very remote possiblity of this happeningto your lips. If your keloids are in the keloid prone areas, ie. shoulders, upper back, ears, and not the face even that remote possiblity should become even more remote. If you think about it you undoubtedly, in childhood and beyond, traumatized your lip in some way. If a keloid did not develop then, it is unlikely a needle stick would cause it to happen now.
Hi!Just by looking at the photo, we cannot determine for sure if Megan Fox didhave lip augmentation done. However, I can share my opinion based on what Ihave observed on that single photo. Her lips do not look that natural, as herupper lip appeared bigger in proportion to her lower lip. They may...
Lip augmentation is usually performed by injecting material, such as collagen, hyaluronic acid, or fat. Cosmetic surgery may also be performed to plump or augment the lips. All cosmetic treatments, surgical and non-surgical, have the risk of adverse outcomes such as scarring. Bumps in the lips...
Most of the bruising one gets from dermal fillers is due to the hands of the physician administering the filler. Knowing the depth of injection, areas which vessels reside, and smooth injection technique will minimize the bruising. Adding lidocaine with epinephrine can decrease bruising....
