Decrease bruising from Restylane

Otto Joseph Placik, MD answers: Is bruising unavoidable after Restylane injections?

Does everyone get bruises after Restylane? If so, how long does the bruises and swelling last? I will be going on a trip four days after getting my Restylane. Is it safe? Thanks

No, not everyone bruises after restylane. IF it does occur it depends on the severity . Typically this will last from 3-5 days. Avoiding aspirin and antiinfflammoaty nedications are usefull and some advocate the use of arnica montana
