What can be done about this redness 2 months after dermal fillers? (Photos)

May 27, 2018
Asked By:Doni1491 in Los Angeles, CA

I had dermal fillers for the 2nd time about 2 months ago with 1ml Stylage XL injected to my chin. Now 2 months later my chin is red, although not as red as the first week. Is this caused by something more serious as vascular compression or could it just be due to my skin being irritated from the multiple injections? What can be done about it? The redness never lasted like this the first time I got fillers. This time it came a lot more blood (probably due to NSAID pills) and hurt more.
