4 days after nose fillers, is it possible to still have swelling?

February 23, 2019
Asked By:Dazzling6108 in Los Angeles, CA

Got my fillers 4 days ago. Still very mildly achy when touched but not much, feels like a pimple on my nose sort of feeling. But I notice a bump on one side as well as top of the bridge, since the day of procedure and now has improved but it’s still there. Is this normal and part of swelling? Should I massage it? Is 4 days too early to tell?

Eric M. Joseph, MD says:

We have seen temporary gel fillers last in the nose for up to 2 years after injection. It is always better to be under injected as opposed to being overcorrected. In all likelihood your body has not metabolized HA filler in 3 weeks. More likely, you were under injected and all of your swelling...
