Considering fuller lips during GLP-1 treatment? Check how an advertised filler enters the skin.
Check the US approval status
FDA has not approved needle-free devices for injecting dermal fillers or any dermal filler for over-the-counter use. Online availability does not establish approval. FDA also advises against buying fillers online because they may be counterfeit or unapproved. [1]
Ask what the advertisement leaves out
AAD says beauty businesses may omit “needle-free” from advertising. Ask about the device; decline if unclear. Pressure can cause uneven lips, tissue death, scars or infection. [2]
Get a complication assessed
AAD recommends medical assessment for side effects after needle-free filler, including lumps or an open sore. FDA advises immediate medical attention for unusual pain, vision changes or white, gray or blue skin near an injection site during or shortly after treatment. [1] [2]
