Will lip scar tissue affect lip fillers/injections?

January 18, 2016
Asked By:Desanka33 in New Zealand, NZ

I had a cyst removed from my inner lip (i.e. the side inside of my mouth if that makes sense) about 5 years ago. I am booked in to get Juvederm lip fillers next week but forgot to mention this scar tissue to the nurse upon booking. Am I still able to get the fillers or does scar tissue affect the outcome?
