The key issue isn't the seafood itself, but the cooking method and flavor. For example, if you've recently had lip fillers, eating very spicy seafood like a very salty seafood salad or a very spicy tom yum soup might not be a good idea. The spiciness and saltiness could cause irritation, swelling, and inflammation, which could affect the filler area.

In addition, some seafood dishes can be high in sodium. Excessive sodium intake can cause the body to retain water, resulting in facial swelling. Therefore, be mindful of your salty seafood, especially in the first 24-48 hours after filler injection.

conclude

  • Seafood is generally not prohibited after filler injections.
  • Spicy seafood dishes, such as those with a very salty flavor or very spicy tom yum soup, should be avoided, especially during the first 24-48 hours after vaccination.
  • Be mindful of the sodium content in seafood, as it can cause facial swelling.
  • If you have any questions, you should consult your treating physician for personalized advice.
  • If you already have a seafood allergy, you should strictly avoid seafood.
