Does it hurt?
Dermal fillers typically contain lidocaine, an anesthetic that may help minimize discomfort during the procedure. Some patients may experience a mild pinching sensation during the injections. To further reduce any potential discomfort, a topical numbing agent can also be applied before the procedure. Individual experiences with pain or discomfort can vary.
What is the downtime?
Dermal fillers usually require minimal downtime, but this can vary from person to person. Common side effects include redness, bruising, swelling, tenderness, or itching around the injection sites, which typically resolve within a few days. To allow time for healing, it’s advisable to avoid scheduling important events for a few days post-treatment.
How long do results last?
Results from dermal filler treatments are generally visible immediately and may continue to improve over 2-3 weeks as the filler integrates with your skin. Depending on the type of filler used and the area treated, results can last from 6 to 24 months. Individual results will vary, and follow-up treatments may be needed to maintain desired outcomes.
Potential Side Effects
Common side effects of dermal fillers include redness, swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the injection sites. These symptoms are usually mild and tend to subside within a few days. In rare cases, more serious side effects like infection, filler migration, or vascular complications may occur. It is important to consult with your practitioner for a thorough understanding of all potential risks and to determine if dermal fillers are suitable for you.
