Side effects of cosmetic treatments such as anti wrinkle treatments and dermal fillers can include, pain, swelling and bruising, and occasionally lumps and bumps which are all normal and will settle.
You may take paracetamol (not ibuprofen or aspirin as this can increase the risk of bruising) and use cool packs, which can be used as often as necessary.
These side effects can last up to 3 weeks in some cases. You are invited to a 14 day follow up and check up to see how the treatment has taken affect and settled, which you are strongly advised to attend.
