can you still get lip fillers while trying to get pregnant?

Question

Currently going to a fertility Dr getting some test such as Diagnostic imaging and lab done, will getting lip fillers affect any of these tests and seeking pregnancy?

Nima Shemirani, MD · Answer

Hi @Gorgeous681325! Getting lip fillers will not affect your lab or imaging tests, but the safety of receiving filler treatments while pregnant is not well known. Thus, I would avoid dermal fillers and Botox while pregnant or breastfeeding. Best of luck to you, Dr. Nima!

nobody knows the safety of lip fillers during pregnancy but I have had many clients do it without issue.  you should def be using lip essentails kit from emeragecosmetics.com for hydration and plumping daily.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Dear Gorgeous681325,
dermal fillers should have no effect on your plan to get pregnant. If you are considering a treatment, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Thank you for your question.  As long as you are not actively present you can obtain fillers.  Hope this helps.

Benjamin Barankin, MD, FRCPC · Answer

Getting fillers (e.g. Juvederm, Restylane) or Botox prior to becoming pregnant is perfectly fine. However, if you are known to be pregnant, because there are no specific studies on this, the general consensus is to avoid fillers and Botox. Fillers and Botox will have zero impact on diagnostic imaging or lab tests related to pregnancy.

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

Getting lip fillers will not affect your lab or imaging tests.  However the safety of receiving filler treatments while pregnant is not well known,  so it is recommended that you do not have them while pregnant.

Teresa Camden, MD · Answer

There is no contraindication while you are not pregnant (and filler will not impact your fertility evaluation/labs). Once you become pregnant or are breastfeeding, avoid fillers and neurotoxins (Botox, Xeomin, etc.) as their safety in this patient population is not known. Best of luck on your pregnancy journey!

Lip fillers will not affect any of the lab work you are getting done. Hope this helps! Good Luck!

In all honesty - we just do not know, however my advice is always firmly that it is NOT worth taking chances as there is too much at stake.

Hello and thanks for your question. You do not want to have lip filler whilst pregant so whilst trying as you are I would avoid. Always go to a qualified and experienced practitioner for any injectable treatment, best wishes
