I Am Scheduled for Juvederm in the Nasolabial Fold and Around my mouth. 5 days later I am scheduled for gum implants with the roof of my mouth for donor site (this will be under general anesthesi). I am worried that all the tugging and work in my mouth will cause the fillers to move since it's so soon after. Is this a legitimate concern?
