Bruising with Radiesse - Is this normal?

Bruising is unpredictable but it can happen. It is not the surgeon's fault. It rarely happens to the same extent on both sides. If you take aspirin within the week before injection the bruising is more likely. I use ice before injection. It seems to help with the pain and bruising.

This location commonly bruises as a result of the facial vein and artery anatomy.  I would advise you to use warm compresses and Bruise-Stick ointment to the area once the bruise appears.
