Do antibiotics affect the longevity of filler?

Dear stellastellastella,
antibiotics don't affect the longevity. I typically use Juvederm for my lip sculpting. There are two main focuses of lip injections, adding volume and actually sculpting the shape. Both involve injecting the filler in different areas of the lips and patterns.
I would recommend finding a plastic surgeon to perform you lip injections. Most of my patients have results that last at least 6 months.

Antibiotics do not effect the longevity of HA fillers. Hope that helps and minimizes your apprehension about taking antibiotics before your procedures.

I suggest waiting until you complete your antibiotics and when your bacterial infection is gone to prevent any kind of complications with the filler. However, there is no association with antibiotics and having the filler degraded by your body faster than usual. Always consult with a board certified medical specialist for your lip filler needs.

Hello and thank you for your question. It is always best to see you face to face for a consult and examination however in this case no the antibiotics should ave no effect on your filler longevity. I hope that helps answer your question. Always seek an experienced and qualified medical professional for these treatments. Very best wishes
