Is It Safe to Have Botox/fillers During IVF Treatment?

Dear Tilegate

Please focus on achieving what is absolutely the most important goals for someone in the middle of being cycled up for IVF-getting pregnant.  What it the harm of getting BOTOX and Restylane now?  There may be absolutely no harm but the point is, we don't know.  It would be bad if the stress of worrying about was it ok or not ok somehow interfered with conceiving.  Could this happen?  Who knows but why take this risk?  So tape over the mirrors and focus on the IVF.  If it fails and you have a break, then consider these treatments.  If it is successful, then once you are done breast feeding, it will be safe to be treated.

The effects of injectables on pregnancy have not yet been determined, but they are usually discouraged if you are pregnant. It is probably wise to avoid injectables during your IVF treatments to reduce any unknown risks.

Botulinum Toxin (Dysport and Botox)  is specifically discouraged while pregnant as the effects on the fetus are unknown.
