As with any medical procedure, there are potential risks, which we minimize to ensure safety. It's crucial to find an experienced and qualified injector who understands safe technique, facial anatomy, and the importance of patient education and managing potential complications.
Potential risks include:
Swelling: Most patients experience temporary swelling, usually resolving within a few days. To reduce swelling, all patients will be provided ice packs to go home with.
Pain: We use topical and local anaesthetics to minimize discomfort. After local anaesthetics, there will be no pain associated with the procedure. Paracetamol can be taken if needed post-procedure.
Bruising: Very common. To reduce this risk, patients are encouraged not to drink alcohol for 24 hours prior to the procedure. If you do bruise, it usually resolves within 7 days.
Infection: To minimize this risk, all procedures are performed in a clean manner. If there are any risk factors for infections – such as viral cold sores, we will supply anti-virals as a prophylaxis for cold sores. If there are signs of bacterial infection (redness, swelling, itch, pain, warmth) post - procedure, you will be prescribed with antibiotics as a prophylaxis.
Allergy – While rare, we're equipped with appropriate medications to manage allergic reactions.
Vascular occlusion – Rare but possible if filler unintentionally enters a blood vessel. Techniques are employed to minimize this risk, and immediate reversal is possible with a dissolving agent.
We will educate you on symptoms to watch for. You will be provided with access to our clinic and direct phone contact 24/7 in case of adverse events.

There is no downtime, you can continue going to work and continue your everyday activities. However, avoid makeup on your lips for 24 hours, physical exercise for 24 hours, and expect swelling for 7-14 days, reducing it with regular icing.
