HLA is found in connective tissue and cartilage. I see no reason why HIV medications would have any effect on it.JB

JB is right--the AZT won't have any effect on your new filler.  But as AZT is one of the culprits in the fat loss, you could continue to lose fat around the new implants and consequently keep needing more and more expensive filler.  With all the better, less toxic, drugs now available, why are you still taking AZT?
