I have sensitive skin, as noticed by the doc that treated me. 30 hours ago I had a lot (> 500units of hyaluronidase) injected in one single spot. Now I still have a slightly puffiness at that spot. When I put pressure on it, there is a very slight pain, as if I have a very minor bruise, but there is no stiffness/discoloration at all. Does puffiness make sense considering the situation and amount of hyaluronidase that I had injected and how long will it take for it to subside? Thank you!

If you have filler in your nose, hylauronidase would certainly help. I would not recommend injecting it otherwise. If you are unhappy with the size of your nose, pursue plastic surgery for a rhinoplasty. Good luck.
Hyaluronidase most certainly will not cause nerve damage. Now it is possible that the needle used to inject the hyaluronidase can hit or pierce a nerve which can cause a bruised nerve and temporary problems.
