Answer: I have used lots of soft tissue fillers in the areas you mention Thank you for your question! I have used lots of soft tissue fillers in the areas you mention and have not had any patient experience blurred vision or headaches after the treatment. IMHO, you should go to an opthalmologist for a thorougheye exam, followed by a thorough physical exan and work up by a medical internist in an effort to detrmine the cause of your symptoms. I would not just assume that these are related to the Juvederm injections. Best of luck!

Answer: Juvederm Side Effects
It does not sound like your symptoms are related to the Juvederm injections especially since your symptoms occurred 2 weeks after your injections. I think you should return to your injector for an evaluation and see your internist as well to see if there is anything else going on. An allergic reaction is extremly rare, but if you have bumps that don't resolve or that are unsightly, hyaluronidase is a very safe method to disolve your filler.

Answer: Follow up visits with injector physicians are part of the injection procedure.
Your symptoms are unlikely related to the Juvederm injections. Allergic reactions are indeed rare although anything is possible I guess. The other symptoms don't fit any post injection condition that I can think of so getting to the bottom of this should start with a well rounded doctor in an ENT disipline. Could you be having a hysteria event (which can happen to anyone if they are exceptionally worried and afraid of some minor sensory stimulation from the injections)? By the way, the hyaluronidase just dissolves the Juvederm away and you will lose the wrinkle line corrections you got from the injections. Hyaluronidase should not cause any prblems otherwise. Did you have anything else then the Juvederm? See your doctor who did the injections too so this can be recorded as well as getting his/her wisdom.

Answer: Dizziness and headaches 2 weeks after injection of Juvederm in glabella and cheeks.
The sequence you are describing doesn't fit any complication of Juvederm or any filler whether in the glabella or elsewhere.
Severe reactions to fillers usually occur during the first hours. Allergic reactions to Juvederm (Hyaluronic acid, a normal component of your own skin) may occur, although extremely rarely.
Most likely you are having a panic attack or a seasonal allergy (AND a panic attack)
Emergency Room Drs are not familiar with reactions to fillers. I recommend that you see an Ear Nose and Throat Dr who, in turn,may refer you to an Allergist
The sequence of events that you describe doesn't fit a complication of Juvederm injection or any other filler.
Serious problems may arise during the first hours or days, but not 2 weeks after.
Most likely you are having a panic attack or perhaps a seasonal allergy to some environmental factors (and a panic attack)
An emergency room Dr is not familiar with complications from fillers. You need an Ear Nose and Throat specialist, and he may refer you further to an Allergist..
