Lip fillers when pregnant?

December 27, 2016
Asked By:kri55i in Manchester, GA

I already have juvederm in my lips. I had my last 1ml in setpember before my wedding. in October I found out I was 6 weeks pregnant. I'm due another top up and have seen from previous advice that whilst the existing filler is fine I shouldn't have more. Why is this? I know there have been no studies on pregnant women but surely the filler is in me anyway so would more really be bad? Also filler doesn't enter the bloodstream so won't reach my baby is that correct? I'm almost 20 weeks pregnant now
