If we are currently fighting an infection, there is an increase in number and activity of active immune cells and mediators circulating in our systems. Having a vaccination produces the same stimulation of our immune system (but without the actual infection).
If you have a filler injection at this time, you are more likely to have an immune response to the filler. This response or reaction shows up as swelling, redness, pain and tenderness over the filler. Sometimes the filler forms “nodules” that could be red, hot and tender (inflammatory).
So, the answer is yes, you must plan your injectable treatment safely.
