Is it safe to inject botox for glabellar lines if you have a nose silicone implant?

Question

Just wondering if there is a high likelihood for complications or infections? And should one be cautious to not inject the Botox directly on top of the radix area, where the forehead and the implant connect? Thank you in advance!

As long as the injector stays away from the implant, the risk of infection will most likely be low. Your injector needs to be aware of your implant.

Hello and thank you for your question. Yes, Botox is a safe treatment even if you have an implant on your nasal bridge. However, you should always tell your surgeon about the implant beforehand. When seeking injectables after surgery, I always recommend seeing a board-certified facial plastic surgeon to ensure the highest safety standards are met during your injection.

Hello and thank you for your question. It is always best to see you face to face for a consult and examination however in this case yes this would be fine- the botox is injected superficially so shouldn't be a problem with your implant.  I hope that helps answer your question. Always seek an experienced and qualified medical professional for these treatments. Very best wishes

yes you can inject botox around implants without any issues. I suggest you see an expert in non surgical procedures.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Dorsal silicone nasal implants may become infected and extrude in anyone, but this is not related to facial Botox treatments. Hope this helps. Dr Joseph
