What happens if you drink through a straw after getting Lip Fillers?

November 23, 2021
Asked By:okaygal in Tulsa, Oklahoma

After every appointment my injector tells me not to drink through a straw. I've done some Googling and haven't really found any answer as to why other than discomfort. Could you please explain what happens to lips if someone continues to drink through a straw after filler? Thank you!
