Will meloxicam 15mg daily affect my Botox or Volbella?

Hi @greekgirrrl516! There is an increased risk of bruising and/or bleeding with the medication. You are still able to receive fillers and botox while on this medication. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

oral medications do not affect fillers I suggest you talk to you physician as it can inrease the risk of bruising and welling so I would suggest pre/post care see emeragecosmetics.com link which we have our patients all do.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Meloxicam is a non steroidal anti-inflammatory. These drugs interfere with platelet function. That means that when you are poked with a needle, you are much more likely to bruise. Generally, I ask patients to stop all of these products for 3 weeks to minimize the risk of bruising. You many find stoping Meloxicam challenging depending on why you are talking it. Always let potential injector know what medicines you are taking. If they tell you it does not matter, you are in the wrong office.

Thank you for sharing your question.  No meloxicam will not impact your Botox or Volbella results.  Hope this helps.

Hello and thank you for your question. Taking Meloxicam will not affect Botox injections other than possibly to cause more bruising. As with any medication, I would advise your provider before getting Botox or any other procedure. Best wishes.Dr. T

You can still receive Botox or Volbella while on Meloxicam.  There is an increased risk of bruising or bleeding with the medication.  Please discuss all medications and supplements with your injector prior to treatment.

Arthritis meds, including NSAID's like Meloxicam, do not effect either Botox or any filler, such as Juvederm Volbella.
