Hello, I had my cheeks filled with HA over 2 years ago (3 ml right, 3 ml left, in a 4 month span) and had no problems since. Now few weeks ago, I noticed that they sometimes get swollen, even just pressing there a tiny bit, I get blue/violet bruises on my right cheek. I’m scared that it’s something dangerous Thank you

Jason Emer, MD says:

​Fillers such as Restylane Silk, Belotero, or Juvederm can work well to treat lines around the mouth, but the best first option is laser resurfacing or deep peels to induce collagen production. Superficial radiofrequency devices and microneedling can help as well and are less invasive. I s...
