Can I have HA fillers a week or two after a chin implant removal?

These services are expensive.  You want the treatment to be accurate.  Swelling that you have in the chin now will eventually dissipate.  Someone doing your filler now would just be guessing where you need volume.  Patience is advised.  You will be ready for chin fillers soon enough.

Thank you for your question!  It is likely that there is still swelling in the area, one week post-op.  You will not harm anything by having the filler placed in that area but it may not be the most accurate as far as how much product to use and where to place the product until the swelling has fully gone down.  I recommend consulting with your surgeon about the the best time to receive your injectable treatment.

I would suspect that there is still some swelling only 3 days after implant removal. I would give the area some time to recover before getting filler treatment. I suspect, however, that if you cannot wait and swelling has resolved that their should be no issue doing the filler now. The best thing to do is discuss with your surgeon prior to the treatment.

As long as there is no swelling from the surgery and the area has completely healed from the removal it is safe to have Hyaluronic acid fillers injected.  I would recommend using Voluma in the chin area. I inject a great deal of Voluma in the chin area and I find that this helps a great deal with both the volume replacement and lift in the area.  Please consult an expert in Voluma for the best cosmetic results.  Best, Dr. Green

Hi Kamilla, I am sorry that the chin implant was not satisfactory. The fact that it was only in there for 3 days makes me wonder if there was a complication. Either way, the swelling will take time to go down, even 6 weeks. Getting fillers before that is likely safe, but is also more likely to leave you with an asymmetric result as the swelling from the surgery is always slightly asymmetric, making your injector "guess." If you are ok with getting touchups knowing that these will nearly be guaranteed, then (as long as the implant was not removed for a complication) ok for some filler.
