I had two syringes of Juvederm two days ago. My doctor said nothing about avoiding aspirin, alcohol, vitamins or NSAIDS and now I have very obvious bruising around my mouth and nasolabial folds! I can't even cover it with makeup so I am very unhappy with the results. My question now is how long can I expect this horrible bruising to last and is there anything I can do to speed the healing?

Answer: Brusing post injection Hi there! Thank you for your question. I'm sorry to hear you are unhappy however most people tend to find this residual bruising settles down after a 7-10 day period. You can help speed up healing with arnica - applied topically or orally, avoidance of pro-bruising factors such as those you have mentioned. Also try cold compress / ice which is useful up to 48hours after treatment. If you are still concerned about results please do contact your practitioner for suitable follow up to ensure all your questions are addressed. I hope this helps! Best wishes,Dr Rupert

Answer: Post Juvederm Bruising- How Long Will It Last? Can I Speed Healing? Hello and thank you for your question. It is very common to have bruising following Juvederm injections. That being said, I suggest an in-person follow up with your board certified injector if you are experiencing severe bruising. I suggest an arnica supplement or cream to expedite the healing process. This is a natural ingredient that reduces swelling and bruising. I hope this information helps and I wish you the best of luck.
