For Fillers: Here's what to expect over the next few weeks after a filler treatment:

The first few days will be a bit uncomfortable so don't worry if you're feeling a bit sore.

It might hurt smiling or touching your face. This is very typical for up to a week or so after and you can take tylenol if you think you need it.

People new to fillers often worry about the 'lumps' that they can feel. This is normal and you'll almost always be able to feel the fresh filler under your skin for a few weeks.

It's not uncommon to have some small bruises at the needle sites. This can easily happen whenever a needle is used to inject the face or anywhere else on the body. Everyone bruises differently, taking from just a few days up to three weeks to fully disappear. Makeup can be used if you want to hide a bruise, but you must wait until the day after filler treatments to reduce the risk of an infection.

Don't worry if things don't look 'perfect' straight away. Due to swelling, you may well feel the result is a little 'obvious' or maybe you can see an asymmetry. This is perfectly normal, and we need to wait 2-4 weeks before judging the results.

If you still feel that you need to be reviewed for whatever reason, please don't feel awkward about this. Injectables are medical treatments and it's important that you check in if you do have a worry.  Feel free to book in for a complimentary review of your treatment and we will see what alternatives we can find for you.
