How soon after the Moderna covid vaccine can I get lip fillers?

Question

Is one week enough time to wait?

Jason Tomsic, DO · Answer

Best practice is waiting a full 2 weeks before or after getting the COVID vaccine, or any vaccine, to get lip filler!

Dear Jasmin1227,
it is probably best to wait a few days in order to see if you will have any reaction to the vaccine. I would recommend finding a plastic surgeon to perform you lip injections. Most of my patients have results that last at least 6 months.

Thank you for sharing your question.  Once you are back to normal and not having any side effects of the vaccine you should be fine to have fillers placed.  Hope this helps.

Onir Spiegel, DDS, PhD · Answer

Great question! There's been only one study published with the Moderna Vaccine showing that three of 3,000 subjects had swelling adverse reaction to the vaccine in areas of filler injections. Two of the patients were treated with benadryl and one with cortisone shot to reduce the swelling. Since that study and millions of individuals vaccinated world wide there hasnt been other reports on the matter, which suggests that the covid vaccine is not a contra- indication to filler injections and visa versa. 
All the best from Boston, Dr. Onir

Leonard Grossman, MD · Answer

As long as you feel well and you have no undue symptoms you can have your fillers. I hope this helps and good luck from New York City plastic surgery

There’s really no need to wait any set amount of time between vaccinations and having lip fillers.

Best,
