Beware of the stars! Moderna vaccine can cause swelling in people with facial fillings, warns dermatologist

Lip fillers react poorly to one of the coronavirus vaccines, an FDA advisory committee said – endangering celebrities, including Kylie Jenner.
Anyone with facial cosmetic fillers could have swelling and inflammation, according to experts, after several participants in the study experienced side effects.
A California dermatologist said the reaction is immunological, ABC7 reported yesterday.
Dr. Shirley Chi said that any side effect can be easily treated with steroids and antihistamines, adding: “Your immune system that causes inflammation is accelerated when you receive a vaccine, that’s how it should work.

It means that celebrities, including British television personalities Chloe Ferry (pictured) and Lauren Goodger, as well as US businesswoman and businesswoman Kylie Jenner – who have all acknowledged fillers – could face side effects then. when it is their turn to receive the vaccine
“So it makes sense that you will see an immune response in certain areas where I see a substance that is not a natural substance in your body.”

Patients who received the Moderna vaccine, which was approved by regulators last Friday, all had swelling in the area where the filling was placed.
Two patients had cheek filling six months before the vaccine and one had lip filling two days after the vaccine. The reactions were resolved quickly with medical assistance, Dr. Chi added, so they should not stop those who have fillings from receiving the jab.
Modern approval came a week after the Pfizer vaccine was authorized, becoming the first COVID-19 jab administered in the United States.

Thousands of healthcare workers have so far received the Pfizer punch, and it is hoped that – with two feet now on the market – the vaccination launch rate will continue to accelerate.
The Moderna vaccine is available in quantities of up to 100 doses and can be stored for 30 days in standard temperature refrigerators.
In contrast, Pfizer vaccinations come in boxes of 975 doses, must be shipped and stored at -94 F (-70 Celsius) and can only be kept for five days at standard refrigerator temperatures.
Officials in Texas and Arkansas told Reuters that Moderna is expected to be the main vaccine for rural areas, which often lack ultra-cold storage equipment to store full trays of Pfizer bottles.
Once the plastic on a 975-dose Pfizer tray is opened, recipients only have 120 hours to use the vaccine.
“Logistics will be easier with the Moderna vaccine,” said Jesse Breidenbach, the pharmacy’s senior executive director for 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 treat,” Breidenbach said.
