Can Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers Cause Chest Pain And Palpitations?

Are chest pains and palpitations side effect of hyalronic acid dermal fillers? Four weeks ago i had hyaluronic acid fillers in my nasolabial folds. Since then i have been getting palpitations and mild chest pain and generally feeling run down. I am wondering whether this is a possible side effect of the injections. The injection site is fine - no swelling, redness or bruising. I have been to see my GP and he can t find a reason for my chest pain (they have done an ECG and blood tests). It may be nothing to do with the fillers but was just wondering if this was a possible side effect? I don t have a history of anaphylaxis. I don t have an allergy to gram positive bacteria (that i know of! - i take probiotics which i believe are gram positive). However, i am sensitive to certain foods including gluten, dairy and soya. Many thanks.

Hello,

Take an appointment with endocrinologist and make some examination like TSH, T3 and T4. Maybe, it is side effect of topical anesthetic that is used during filler procedure.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
