Dermal Fillers: Side Effects

 

Good news: If you’re anticipating taking any time off after your dermal filler treatment, you’ll be happy to know you can get right back to your normal routine after your session.

 

Dermal fillers may cause minor side effects at the injection site. Some of these side effects can include:

 

  • Minor swelling
  • Bruising
  • Slight bleeding from injection site
  • Sensitivity to touch

 

These side effects are temporary; most go away a few hours to days after treatment.

 

If you’re feeling uncomfortable after your treatment or have swelling symptoms, you can ice the injection site. You will also be asked to wear sunscreen after your treatment to help protect your skin from any UV exposure.

When to Expect Your Dermal Filler Results

 

Patients can expect to see their dermal filler results immediately and optimum results two weeks post injection. 

 

How Long Will Dermal Filler Results Last?

 

The duration of your dermal fillers largely depend on the type of filler you receive during your treatment.

 

Here’s a general rule of thumb in terms of how long you can expect your filler results to last:

 

  • Mid-cheek fillers: About twelve to eighteen months
  • Fillers for the nasolabial folds: Nine months
  • Lip augmentation: Six to nine months

 

As you can see, most dermal filler results tend to last around the nine month mark, with thicker dermal fillers lasting beyond one year.
