I have bruised from Restylane before. Will Juvederm cause the same bruising?

Bruising is one of the more common complications of injectable fillers. The bruising is not directly caused by the type of filler, but rather, by the size of the needle used to inject the filler, the amount of tissue trauma during injection, trauma to the arteries and veins around the injection site, and the patient's propensity to bleed.
Common causes of bleeding and bruising are a family history of bleeding disorders, ingestion of aspirin, ibuprofen, coumadin, or other herbal medications that may thin out the blood and impair proper coagulation of .
Prior to your next injection, make sure to avoid taking aspirin, ibuprofen, or other blood thinners for three weeks. Also, make sure to place compression with or without ice packs immediately after surgery. I would begin use of Plato's Medicinals Bruise Balm to minimize the onset and duration of a bruise. 

Swelling and bruising from fillers typically lasts up to two weeks. Be sure to avoid high sodium foods.

Thank you for your question. An experienced provider can typically reduce the occurrence of bruising and some modalities like using a microcannula can reduce that occurrence even further. However, the risk of bruising is still always present regardless of the type of product used. I hope that helps!

Fillers can bruise. It is not dependent on the specific filler as they are both HAs.It can be controlled with decreasing things that cause blood thinning such as fish oil, aspirin, alcohol and NSAIDs.Also cannulas have been shown to decrease the bruising. See the video attached for a demonstration.Hope this helps.Best of luck,DrC

You may experience temporary swelling, mild discomfort/tenderness of the injected area/s, redness, lumps, mild bruising, and possible itching. Most side effects are mild or moderate in nature, and are short lasting.

The best way to minimize bruising
- especially for sensitive areas like lips or under the eyes, is to avoid
medications such as aspirin, Ibuprofen ( Motrin and Advil) and non-steroidal
anti-inflammatories such as Alleve or Naprosyn that might be taken for sports
injuries . Other culprits of bleeding and bruising tendencies are green tea,
flax seed oil, Omega -3s and alcohol or caffeine intake the day before
your treatment and for f3-5 days after treatment.
Arnica oral tablets are an easy remedy to reduce
the degree and length of time of bruising and can be taken 3 -5 days following
the treatment.#bruisingafterfillers #remediesforbruising  #Juvedermbruisingremedies

Neither Juvederm nor Restylane will make you bruise more.  Filler requires a slightly bigger needle compared to the tiny Botox needles. Despite the slight increase in recovery, filler patients remain a very happy group. 80% of RealSelf patients report that Juvederm is 'worth it

Unfortunately, if you bruised with Restylane, you will have a similar chance of bruising with Juvederm if it is injected in the same area by the same injector using the same technique.  The bruise is caused by the needle, not the product.

It’s unusual for patients to develop bruising following the
use of injectable fillers. Never the less this complication may occasionally
occur following these injections. Bleeding and bruising aren’t usually related
to the filler material, but instead are related to the injection technique and
the patients clotting mechanism. Although
this complication may be unavoidable every effort should be made to avoid
post-operative bleeding. For this reason, strenuous activity should be avoided
for 24 hours following the use of injectable fillers. These activities can elevate blood pressure
and increase the potential for bleeding.In
addition, drugs that increase the potential for bleeding should be
discontinued. These include Ibuprofen, Aleve, Motrin and aspirin to name a few.When
these steps are taken the incidence of post injection bleeding and bruising is
diminished but never totally eliminated.

Bruising is usually more associated with the injection technique and the needle, rather than the product. Therefore, you'll probably find that if you return to that same injector who performed your Restylane treatment, the rate of bruising may be similar. However, if you find an injector that has more experience, your bruising may be reduced even if you have Restylane again.

The bruising from Juvederm and Restylane would be about the same based on the injector.   Make sure that the person injecting the Juvederm is a board certified plastic surgeon. Nurse injectors just do not have enough skill, training, education, or expertise to inject fillers.
