Facial Fillers Wappanocca | |
Significant complications or allergic reactions are rare with these filling agents, no skin testing is required. More common local reactions include but are not limited to swelling, redness, bruising, pain, itching, skin discoloration, tenderness, and lumpiness at the implant site. Bruising can last 2-10 days (average 5 days). To minimize bruising avoid aspirin, aspirin-containing medications, other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications, and other blood “thinners” (including Vitamin E, ginkgo, ginger, and ginseng supplements) for 7-10 days prior to injections. Rarely severe swelling can occur minutes to hours later (not an actual allergic reaction to the material itself). Prednisone is used to treat this condition, which usually resolves in 1-3 days. Oral anti-histamines like Claritin, Allegra, or Zyrtec can be used prior to and after injections to lessen post-procedure swelling. In addition to oral antihistamines, we suggest ice packs and head elevation for the first 12-24 hours after filler treatment to minimize swelling, redness, and discomfort. Arnica tablets (either alone as 12c or 30c dissolvable tablets or combined with oral bromolain) may be helpful to minimize bruising and swelling. If you have a history of cold sores or lip herpes simplex episodes, please premedicate with an oral anti-herpes medication (e.g. Valtrex) the day prior and for 3-4 days following your procedure. | |
