Can I receive hyaluronic acid injections while trying to conceive?
I am a woman who is trying to conceive. Considering the potential risks associated with receiving hyaluronic acid injections (mesotherapy), I would like to ask whether it is safe to undergo this treatment.

Hydroquinone injection is a cosmetic procedure that involves injecting nutrients such as hyaluronic acid, vitamins, and amino acids into the dermis to achieve effects such as hydration, moisturization, and skin brightening. Although hyaluronic acid, the main component of hydroquinone injections, is a naturally occurring substance in the human body and generally considered safe, women's bodies undergo important physiological preparation for pregnancy during the preconception period. During this time, hormonal levels fluctuate and the body's sensitivity to external factors increases.
Hydroquinone injections typically contain chemical substances such as hyaluronic acid, whose safety during the preconception period has not been sufficiently verified. Furthermore, hydroquinone injections may also trigger local inflammatory responses, potentially exacerbating hormonal imbalances and possibly affecting fertility and embryonic development.
To ensure the health of a future baby, women should carefully consider the substances they are exposed to and how they affect their bodies during the preconception period. Safer and more natural skincare alternatives are available, such as maintaining good sleep habits, eating a balanced diet, and engaging in moderate physical activity.
