Yes, I am one of those.... I am paranoid of the risks and I want to know when I'm in the clear for this risk. It's been about 36 hours since I was injected and I want to stop being paranoid. So when does it normally show up if a blood vessel was injected.
Answer: Dermal fillers Hi @Newboobs17. A vascular occlusion would show up immediately. Signs and symptoms of an occlusion include extreme pain, redness, swelling, and blisters. Best of luck to you, Dr. Nima!

Answer: Don't Worry--Filler Injections with Restylane You are in the clear. An occlusion would show up immediately and would be associated with pain, redness, severe swelling, blisters. You may still have some swelling which will take 1-2 weeks to resolve. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Occlusion of blood vessel after Restylane Occlusion of a blood vessel might be immediately apparent because the skin would turn white from lack of blood flow and the patient might experience severe pain. Blood vessel blockage could also reveal itself in the first few days after injection. It could show redness, bruising, swelling, pain, blisters, and pustules. This type of side effect is fortunately very rare with proper technique. You should call your doctor if you are having any side effects.Regards,Dr. Ort

Answer: Vessel compromise with filler Usually if a vessel is compromised the problem shows up while the injection is being done so you should have no problem at 36 hours. If you are having severe pain contact your physician

Answer: Facial fillers: signs of vessel occlusion Facial fillers are injected to improve the volume, contour, and symmetry of the face. A rare, but known complication of injectable filler is occlusion or blockage of a blood vessel. During the injection, patients will experience excess pain and blanching of the skin around the site of injection. Your experienced injector can treat this immediately by dissolving the filler and improving blood flow to the area. By the next day, the skin will appear dusky. After 24 hours, skin starts to die. If you have a concern, you should bring it up with your doctor. Safety comes first.
