I had Bellafill in my lips about two months ago with absolutely no problems. I want to now add Juvéderm or some other product on top of that to get more full. Is this OK to do? Thanks
Answer: Bellafill in lips The lips and periorbital skin are the two areas I do not treat with Bellafill. I would not recommend additional product in your lips for at least 6 months as you need to see what happens with the collagen building capacity of Bellafill. Sadly, it often causes lumps and bumps in areas where there is muscle motion. In other stable areas on the face it is a wonderful long term collagen builder.

Answer: Bellafill and Other Fillers I would avoid any more bellafill into the lips for risk of nodules long term but adding other fillers on top shouldn't make much of a difference if you have a normal stable good result from your first treatment. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Bellafill for lips This is the one region I simply will not place Bellafill. It is an extraordinary product that can be used in other areas of the face for a lasting, natural correction.

Answer: Fillers in lips after Bellafill was used Bellafill in the lips is not recommended. Lumps are very possible and I've heard of infections too. Adding Juvederm will likely increase the rate of complications and is not recommended.

Answer: Bellafill for the Lips and Adding Another Filler While very few physicians will use Bellafill in the lips, I have routinely used it here and it excels as a lip filler. It is soft, pliable and rarely causes any problems. If lumps do develop they are easily treated with an injection of a steroid called Kenalog 10. You should be aware that the product label does specifically say that Bellafill is not for lip injection and that use in this area is very definitely off label. You can add any of the other fillers like Juvederm or Restylane if you want to go bigger but remember, these products will eventually need to be replaced. I have added a web reference and video for more information for you. I hope that helps. Best regards.
