Why do I have a black eye after a Juvederm injection to put volume into my cheeks? I had a Juvederm injection on Friday. That evening and the next day I had a headache and felt unwell, and Saturday I awoke to find severe bruising of a red/purple colour under my right eye. Left eye is fine. Is this normal? Could the headache and feeling unwell be a side effect of Juvederm also?
Answer: Black eye after Juvederm injections to cheeks
As the panel members stated, all injectable treatments come with the possibility of bruising. Although there are simple measures to take before the treatment to minimize this potential and steps to follow to manage the bruise, it will always be a potential with these treatments. The reason why the bruise developed under the eye although the cheeks were treated is because bruising will tend to follow the path of least resistance...the orbital area. Rest assured, it will improve with each passing day. However, based upon your concerns and your other symptoms, it is always recommended to address this with the one that did your procedure so that they may properly monitor your progress.

Answer: Injections near the eyes often cause bruising
I tell my patients they have a very high chance of bruising with fillers, especially if injected near the eyes. I can't answer your question about you feeling unwell without knowing more about your symptoms, but I can tell you that bruising under the eye is common, usually not a problem, and will go away in 3-10 days.

Answer: Bruising after fillers
any time there is an injection, the needle could cause a bruise even if you can't see a vein in the area. The minute bleeding could occur as a result of a tiny vein being nicked that is not visible. The slight blood cells travel underneath the skin and reach distant sites, and are visible in the thinnest areas the soonest. It is not unusual to see the bruise develop two to three days after the procedure.

Answer: Juvederm and bruising
Unfortunately, any injection can cause bruising. It can happen from some food, blood thinners, anti-inflammatories to name a few.
