I am getting lip fillers in 4 days but I have some cramps and was wondering how it would affect me if I took some Advil pills.
Answer: Medication Medications such as Advil are blood thinners. They can increase your risk for bruising and bleeding during your filler treatment. An alternate choice until after your filler treatment is Tylenol (acetaminophen) which does not have blood thinning properties.

Answer: OTC Blood thinning medications before injection Taking Advil a few days before your treatment can cause more bleeding and bruising. I recommend taking Tylenol for pain during this time until after your treatment. If you have already taken Advil before your treatment, just make your provider aware. Hope this helps.
