Is there pain in hands after Restylane filler?

Thank you for the question.
There are many ways to minimize discomfort.  With Restylane and other injectable fillers, your doctor can apply a topical anesthesia first in order to numb the area.  Also, most hyaluronic acid fillers are now formulated with lidocaine to make the process as comfortable as possible.  Lidocaine containing fillers immediately numb the areas giving you a more pleasant experience.  Ice applied after the injection also helps.
Overall, most patients find the procedure very quick and comfortable.
As always, an in-person consultation with a board certified dermatologist with cosmetic training is the best way to assess your needs and provide medical advice. 

Hello

We answered your wonderful question in the video above.



Please consult with an accredited, board certified surgeon. It is all about designing the perfect plan for you and your body!

Good luck, please let us know how it goes.

Fillers can be placed in the hands with minimal pain and likely no downtime; I prefer Radiesse for this area. I suggest consulting with an expert for further evaluation. 

Thank you for your question.  There is typically no pain after the injection of Restylane into the hands.  If larger volumes (more than 1 syringe per hand) is used there is a higher risk of an adverse event such as pain and swelling.  If you desire more than 1 syringe per hand it would be best to have more than 1 treatment session to minimize your complication risk.  I wish you the best!

Generally there is no pain and no down time after the injections. Radiesse is a better choice than Restlane and it does not make any difference whether the doctor uses cannula or needle but be sure you see a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon

This procedure should give you minimal to no downtime. The skin over the hands moves easily and will accommodate fillers without problem, Bruising is unlikely when we use blunt microcannulas to place the filler. Another procedure you should consider is sclerotherapy for the vessels of the hands. Again, minimal to no pain, with wonderful results.

The discomfort experienced after Restylanefiller in the hands should be minimal during the procedure and post. The painexperience may be described as a mild, achy feeling which should be temporaryand subside shortly thereafter. There should certainly not be any lastingpain/discomfort long term. There is a better filler for hands available and itscalled Radiesse for hands.
