Are there undesirable effects?
As with all skin fillers swelling and/or redness, with or without associated pain, may occur after the injection. These generally disappear within a few hours, days or in some cases within a week. Some rare cases of necrose, abscess, granuloma or of over-sensitivity were described in the scientific literature after injections of hyaluronic acid. Continuation of these reactions or appearance of any other side effects must be reported to the practitioner by the patient as soon as possible in order to resolve it by appropriate treatment. The distributor should also be informed about this incident. Before treatment, please inform your patient about the potential side effects related to this injectable implant.
