Can hyaluronic acid fillers reach or affect the brain after absorption and time?

July 11, 2018
Asked By:sez760 in Usa

Recently about 1 year ago it said on the juvederm website that there has been no studies whether it has any affect or can reach the brain. One or the other. I cannot find that know. Has there been a recent clinical trial on it? As the filler gets absorbed, can it get into the bloodstream and cross the blood brain barrier. If so, what affect can it have?

Monika Soni, MD says:

Thank you for your question! It's impossible to make exact recommendations without assessing you in-person. That said, based on your photos, it does appear that your Volift (marketed as Vollure in the United States) was injected too superficially, resulting in blebs of visible filler under y...
