When can I have fillers after removing a infected implant?

After the removal of an infected implant, it's crucial to allow your tissues adequate time to heal before undergoing any additional procedures, including dermal fillers. Here are some general considerations:

Healing Time: Typically, it is recommended to wait until the inflammation and infection have completely resolved and the tissues have healed. This healing period can vary depending on individual circumstances, but it often takes several weeks to a few months.

Consultation with Your Surgeon: It's important to discuss your specific situation with your surgeon or a qualified medical professional. They can assess the condition of your tissues and advise you on the appropriate timing for dermal fillers.

Risk of Complications: Introducing fillers too soon after an infection might increase the risk of complications, such as further infection or inflammation. Ensuring complete healing minimizes these risks.

Plan for Reimplantation: If you plan to have another implant in the future, consider discussing with your surgeon how fillers might impact the timing and outcome of the reimplantation.

Ultimately, your healthcare provider can offer the best guidance based on a thorough evaluation of your recovery progress.
