Restylane and autoimmune disease?

October 25, 2016
Asked By:LA2018 in Morristown, NJ

Hello! I have very deep tear troughs and darkening under the eyes. I was looking into fillers but I am not sure if they are a safe procedure for me as I have an autoimmune disorder (hoshimotos/hypothyroid). Is there a possibility that my body would react to the hyloronic acid as it is man made and not "natural". Has anyone with this disorder received restylane and had an adverse effect? Or do physicians typically turn away patients with this disorder? Thanks for any help!
