How soon after getting filler placed is it safe to become pregnant?

taral12Feb 26, 2022
Juvederm lip filler safety while trying to get pregnant. I have been receiving juvederm lip filler for several years- recently started trying to conceive. I understand that I can not get injections while pregnant- but how soon after getting filler placed is it safe to become pregnant? I have been told there is no wait time needed but since it is absorbed / metabolized over time can that be harmful to a pregnancy? Does it go through the blood stream?

Less viscosity ha filler will spread and migrate more than high viscosity fillers! Kubederm voluma is the most cohesive filler and therefore the least likely to migrate!

It is unlikely that the bump by your eye is related to your filler treatment since it has been several months since your injection. However it is best to visit with your injector who can evaluate the situation more closely.

From your photos it does not appear your lips were overfilled. Depending on the filler selected, some have a firmer feel than others. I encourage you to wait the full two weeks for the product to fully settle and soften.

If the filler is all truly dissolved your lip should return to a look similar to before treatment. It's hard to comment specifically with no before/after photos. I encourage you to visit with an expert injector for an evaluation.

Volift typically lasts 15 to 18 months, though that will vary by patient. If you are unhappy with the treatment results the quickest way to address your concerns is to have the product dissolved with hyaluronidase.

From the limited photos it does appear the filler may be placed superficially causing the contour concerns you mentioned. I encourage you to discuss your concerns and options with your experienced injector. If an HA filler was used the product can be dissolved with hyaluronidase.
