Last month, the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine was authorized for emergency use in the US by the Food and Drug Administration. Despite early data showing that the vaccine is highly protective against the virus, new reports suggest that it's also caused an unexpected side effect in people with facial fillers.
In a recent review of the vaccine conducted by the FDA advisory committee, it was noted that a handful of people who had previously gotten cosmetic facial fillers had mild reactions after receiving their second doses during Moderna's vaccine trial. Though this may sound slightly alarming to the thousands of people who receive fillers regularly, it's worth noting that these reactions have been extremely rare occurrences, and according to doctors, it isn't much to worry about.
