I got my lips injected with juvederm for the first time in November of 2014.Everything was great.I went back in April to use the rest of my syringe but there was hardly anything left so on May 29th I went back.Mid June I got sick 3 times (for 2 months) & couldn't fight it off like I normally do.Fast forward to October when I went in again for a touch up & now I'm sick for the 4th time in the course of two months.I'm very concerned and curious to know if the juvederm is harming my immune system.
