Dermal Filler: Is it normal bruising or necrosis or worse? (photos)

January 27, 2016
Asked By:Moodyy in Sydney, FL

I had some o.8cc of filler injected into the bridge of my nose. The nose was sore but looked fine on the first day. However, there was quite alot of discomfort the following days and i started to develop a significant bruise through that area. The first photo was on the day of treatment and the second photo is 6 days after the initial injection.
