Did the Filler Block a Vein After Injection?

Some feelings of tenderness and tightness are normal after nonsurgical rhinoplasty. Any time you have concerns it is a good idea to follow up with your physician to be evaluated in person. If the skin is not discolored, it is unlikely that the injection is causing vascular compromise (blocked one of your vessels).

One of the complications of using fillers in the nose is that the filler can obstruct an artery or vein that feeds into the skin or muscle beneath the skin.  However, if this happens, there is always swelling, redness and pain initially, followed by loss of the skin in the area.  Although it is difficult to judge in your situation, without pain it is unlikely that your have had a filler block a vein. You should, however, return to your injecting doctor and discuss your concerns with him.  Hope that helps.
