Thank you for your question. It's hard to tell from your photo. However, there is always a chance of bruising and minor swelling with any type of filler. This usually dissipates after a couple of weeks. We wish you the best!
Swelling may develop after a filler. Our office specializes in filler complications, including those that arise from permanent injections such as these. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles
It is difficult to tell from your photo. Fillers can cause some temporary swelling. This product will grow over the next few months. If you have any concerns return to your injector.
I would wait for the swelling to go down. The picture is very poor quality so I can't really make out any details. Remember, a female chin should be narrow and man's chin is much broader. Hopefully your provider didn't widen your chin. Swelling is normal after any injection and can take a week or so to get better.
Bellafill doesn't draw water to it like many fillers do, so swelling is usually mild and mostly related to swelling around injection sites from the needle or cannula. Most swelling resolves in 2-5 days and any persistent swelling should be brought to the attention of your injecting physician
Immediate swelling is typical after filler injections. The swelling will resolve. The collagen (which makes up most of the material) will be reabsorbed and you will make your own collagen over the PMMA substrate. Please submit a follow up as I would expect that you will become more satisfied with additional time out. If not, you will need to discuss your concerns with your injector. Best of luck!
Call the injecting doc to RX Steroids and antibiotics, ice area also. Appears as reaction to the filler...
The picture is hard to see but, it may be normal swelling after an injection. Let it settle down before you rush in to do anything. If you don't like the look afterwards, go back to the injector and have them evaluate you. Hope this helps, it appears normal.
Good Day. Thank you for your question.I could not evaluated the photograph well. The chin is a difficult area to inject. I rarely place filler below the skin (subcutaneously) in the chin area, because when you contract the chin muscle (mentalis), it can result in a mass or bulge.If there is a volume loss in the anterior mandible area, it is best to inject the filler below the muscle and above the bone. Radiesse and Bellafill work best compared to the HLA fillers (Restylane and Juvederm).Swelling from fillers usually peeks at two days, lessened by ice or cold compresses and the swelling resolve completely about 4-7 days post injection.
Bellafill, as with any filler, will cause swelling and bruisingfor at least a few days. This isespecially true if a needle was used to do the injection since needles arequite traumatic. When a micro cannula isused, there is generally far less trauma and as a result less swelling and bruising. What you are experiencing is pretty normaland in fact most injectors will tell you to expect this problem.Because it lasts so long, you should be aware of the risksand benefits of these types of fillers. I have added a video that may help you.I hope that helps.Best regards.
You can either remove your existing chin implant and replace with a larger one, or put a filler overtop of the implant. The filler will likely last approximately 1 year in this location, sometimes longer.
Thank you for your question. I often use fillers to augment the chin when a patient doesn't want to undergo surgery for a chin implant. Both Radiesse and Voluma are good choices for this area, with results that can last up to two years or even longer in some cases. The quantity will depend on...
The degree of your microgenia (lack of chin projection) would require a lot of Radiesse which is only a temporary fix so I would not recommend it. You would do better with a chin implant if you want a simple fix. When Radiesse is injected properly it should not cause your brow to fall.
