Delayed swelling and bruise on just one cheek after filler 12 days ago

Asked By:realtin3131 in Carlow, IE

I got HA filler injected into my cheeks for volume loss. Had minimal swelling after. Woke up yesterday 12 days later to find my left cheek slightly swollen, just above cheek, before eye trough. There is a slight discolouration in this area, looks a bit like reddish dry skin but not that noticeable. Is this normal?I just don't want it to get worse.Could it be infected? I also have intermittent eye twitching in this area since injection. Thanks
