Are there any predictors of a bad outcome or permanent skin damage from hyaluronidase?

Question

I’ve read a few stories about Hyaluronidase potential to damage healthy skin, even permanently, and in general to give a bad outcome. Since I’ll be receiving this procedure myself, I’m guessing: in your experience, are there any “red flags” or predictors of a bad outcome or even risk of permanent damage? For example: older age of the patient, thin skin, gaunt face.. Or something else you’ve observed in you practice. Thank you.

Hello! My name is Jessica, I am a physician assistant, and one of the providers at Shah Facial Plastics. This is a great question. There are potential side effects of Hylenex, including: risk of an allergic reaction, swelling, bleeding, and some discoloration of skin. These potential side effects are temporary and unlikely to be permanent. I highly recommend scheduling an in-person consultation in order to better assess your areas of concern and discuss an appropriate treatment plan to help achieve your aesthetic goals. Our office phone number is: (312) 944-0117. I hope this helps and best of luck!
