Can Hydroxyapapatite + Artefill lead to hypersensitivity?

February 16, 2022
Asked By:Philosophical623631 in Miami, Florida

I was wondering if hydroxyapatite injected into the lip cheek/malar region can lead to hypersensitivity over time? How about with Artefill present from 9 years ago? I am currently suffering from irritation (itchiness) and redness in this particular area.
