After Procedure

After filler injections you can be quite red and swollen and in some cases you may be bruised. You may also get bleeding around the injection sites. The extent of the swelling and redness you experience can depend on a number of factors including practitioner skill, the area being injected, the type of product being used and the amount of product being used. These side effects can last for a couple of days but can be disguised with make-up. If you are applying make-up straight after treatment you are advised to use mineral make-up as your normal make-up may increase you risk of infection. A lot of clinics now carry lines of mineral make-up and many now apply some after treatment for you.

The post treatment advice you are given will vary depending on the product you are having and the area being treated. Make sure you follow the advice given to you by your practitioner carefully. Ice packs, or even a bag of frozen vegetables, can be useful to help reduce swelling and post treatment pain can be managed with painkillers.
