Is it common to have bruise patches all over the nose and upper cheek after a Juvederm injection?

March 9, 2015
Asked By:Danaablizina in California, CA

I have received 1 syringe Juvederm injection into my nasolabial folds, right after the injection circular bruise patches appeared all over my nose and upper cheek. I have previously done Restylane and didn't have similar reaction, I had bruise at the spot of injection but never on my nose; does this have to do with the product or with the way of injection, and should such discoloration on my nose be a concern? is there a way to decrease this. Thank you.
