Watch out for celebrities! Modern vaccine can cause swelling in people with facial fillers, warns dermatologist
- The modern vaccine causes a reaction in people with cosmetic facial fillers
- Patients who received the vaccine experienced swelling in the area with the fillers
- This means that celebrities, including Lauren Goodger from the UK, may face reactions
- A California dermatologist said the reaction was immunological
Lip fillers react badly to one of the coronavirus vaccines, an FDA advisory committee noted – putting celebrities at risk, including Kylie Jenner.
Anyone with cosmetic facial fillers can experience swelling and inflammation, according to experts, after several study participants faced side effects.
A California dermatologist said the reaction was immunological, ABC7 reported yesterday.
Dr. Shirley Chi said that any side effects are easily treatable with steroids and antihistamines, adding: ‘Your immune system, which causes inflammation, is accelerated when you get a vaccine, this is how it should work.

This means that celebrities, including British television personalities Chloe Ferry (pictured) and Lauren Goodger, as well as US socialite and businesswoman Kylie Jenner – who admitted to taking drugs – may face side effects when it is their turn to take the drug. vaccine
“So it makes sense for you to see an immune response in certain areas where they see some substance that is not a naturally occurring substance in your body.”
This means that celebrities, including British television personalities Chloe Ferry and Lauren Goodger, as well as socialite and businesswoman Kylie Jenner from the United States – who admitted to taking drugs – may face side effects when it is their turn to get the vaccine.
The patients who received the Moderna vaccine, which was approved by regulators last Friday, all had swelling in the area where the filler was placed.
Two patients had a cheek fill six months before the vaccine and one had a lip fill two days after the vaccine. The reactions were resolved quickly with medical attention, added Dr. Chi, so this should not prevent those with fillers from receiving the injection.
Moderna’s approval came a week after the Pfizer vaccine was authorized, making it the first injection of COVID-19 administered in the United States.

Thousands of healthcare professionals have received the Pfizer vaccine so far and it is expected that – with two applications now on the market – the rate of vaccination implementation will accelerate further.
Moderna’s vaccine is available in quantities as small as 100 doses and can be stored for 30 days in standard temperature refrigerators.
On the other hand, Pfizer’s inoculations come in boxes of 975 doses, must be shipped and stored at -94 F (-70 Celsius) and can be kept for only five days in standard refrigerator temperatures.
Texas and Arkansas officials told Reuters they expect Moderna to be the primary vaccine for rural areas, which often lack the ultra-refrigeration equipment to store trays filled with Pfizer bottles.
Once the plastic in a Pfizer 975-dose tray is opened, recipients have only 120 hours to use the vaccine.
“Logistics will be easier with the Modern vaccine,” said Jesse Breidenbach, senior executive director of pharmacy at Sanford Health, which operates nearly four dozen hospitals in South Dakota, North Dakota, Minnesota and Iowa.
“Thirty days in the fridge will make it a little easier to handle,” said Breidenbach.
