Non-surgical Rhinoplasty Redness Nightmare! Allergic Reaction?
About a week ago I received a juvederm injection on the left side of my nose to diminish a dip and the results were ok, caused some nostril asymmetry but what really worries me is that the redness never went away! Yesterday I went to my followup appointment and told my surgeon and he didn't seem too worried about it. He told me it was due to sun exposure. I then made the mistake of doing it again in a different spot on my nose. Now my entire nose and a little bit of my cheeks are very red! Help!
