How long until redness and bruising subside after nasal fillers?

Question

Two days ago I got Juvederm in the bridge and tip of my nose. The bridge is slightly bruised but the tip is completely red. I’ve had nasal filler before but I have never had this issue. For background I had a former history of having a nasal drug issue. Could this be in any relation to my problem now? The tip of my nose is very very red but the shape looks nice.

Your question is difficult to answer without a picture. Though, redness and bruising can be seen after filler injections, the nose is an area which is at risk for vascular compromise after filler injections. The best thing to do is see your injector ASAP for an in-person examination. Best wishes.

It's too soon to tell what your final results will be. I recommend following up with your Doctor for a formal evaluation and after care recommendations if you're concerned. Swelling can last 1-2 weeks after filler injections. If you're unhappy with your final results, you can have it reversed with hyaluronidase and try a different technique next time. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Bruising is typical after injections and usually resolves before two weeks.  Redness at the time of injection is common, but that should resolve after a few hours.  I would contact your injector regarding redness that has persisted this long.

Hi encinonosefillergirl,Hopefully you are better by now, if not, you should immediately see your treating physician for evaluation.  It is not normal for your nose to stay red after fillers for 48 hrs.  Good luck and be well.Michael Persky, MDEncino, CA

Thank you for sharing your excellent question.  Though I do not think related to your previous drug use, redness and bruising may last for up to 10-14 days after treatment.  Hope this helps.
