ArteFill: Q&A

Does the Artefill Product Even Itself out or is Your Face Uneven Forever?
Im scared the artefill was not evenly distributed because one cheek area seems to be "puffier" than the other. However, its only been 10 hours so swelling is still there as well as bruising.

Botox asymmetry after injection
Asymmetry ten hours after injectiion is not unusual. There can be tissue reaction and possibly bleeding or bruising from the injecition. Give yourself about a week before becoming concerned.

Swelling 10 hours after injection of a filler may not mean much. I would consult with your doctor to make sure it is nothing more than benign swelling. The filler is a permanent filler which uses microscopic PMMA particles in collagen to fill and cause scarring in the deep skin tissues. Unlike Restylane, Juvederm etc it cannot be reversed so if you have any questions it would be best to direct them to the person who gave you these shots.
Good Luck
