Thank you for your question. It is not recommended to have injections when you are pregnant. I would be surprised if you found a clinic that would inject a pregnant person. Best,
As a general rule, injectables should not be performed during pregnancy. There are little to no studies on the safety of such procedures during pregnancy which is why it is not recommended. You can consult with your OB-GYN on this, but I find it highly unlikely an injection specialist would perform the treatment until after you deliver. Best of luck!
The advice is not to have Botox or filler injections if you’re pregnant, since the potential effects on the baby are not known.In line with the advice for pregnancy, the NHS states you should not have Botox® if you are breastfeeding either, because the potential effects on your baby are unknown.
It is not recommended to undergo this type of procedure during pregnancy. It is not likely to affect your baby, however, we always suggest waiting until after you deliver.

While an uneventful lip injection with hyaluronic acid should not affect your baby, I would wait until you've delivered before undergoing any medically unnecessary procedures. There is always a risk for complications, which are difficult to treat while pregnant. While rare, these include infection and necrosis.

Juvederm would normally be injected to a level deeper than Renova would reach when placed on the skin. Using Renova should not affect the longevity of Juvederm.
Sculptra is usually injected much deeper than Juvederm, but its best to discuss with your treatment provider to make sure of the placement.
Thank you for your question. Yes, you can get the hyaluronidase injection while you are on antibiotics. It will be worth while to check in with your injector to ensure he/she is comfortable with your condition. Best.
Thank you for your question. It is very common for the lips to look over corrected or fake the next day. I often tell my patients that this is the "oh my gosh" day. This is due to all the swelling that ensues. It may last a few days with every day showing a decrease in swelling. The more...
Thank you for your question. Yes, contact your injector and schedule an appointment to be assessed. There are a couple options in this scenario. Either adding product or removing product. Best.
In the United States, Juvederm Ultra comes in 1cc, 0.8cc, and 0.4cc syringes. Hope this helps! Good Luck
