WORTH IT$40

I decided to try Silagen's Arnica-Bromelian Complex Rapid Recovery System because my face bruises post Botox and lip filler. My doctor always gives me ice packs to put on my face but it's hard to ice my face while driving home. I put ice on my forehead and eye area at home and sometimes I ice my forehead at night.

The bruises are tiny enough to cover up with concealer but sometimes they look worse while healing days after my appointment.

Oh, I bleed during my injections, and I thought it was normal because there needles are going into my skin. I asked my doctor about the bleeding and he said that my skin does bleed more than the average person. I always avoid aspirin and everything else advised but it doesn't help much at all. I guess it's a heritable thing because it happens to close family whenever they have a blood test.

The supplement won't help with the bleeding because I started taking it after my appointment. But I am hoping it'll help decrease the swelling, bruising and healing time.

I brought the bottle and the informational pamphlet to my appointment on Friday afternoon and my doctor read it. I took one right before he gave me the ice packs while in his office. I had Botox on my forehead, in between my eyes and above my eye brows. The directions are to take one twice daily. I feel good and my body is not reacting negative to the supplement.

There are a lot of great vitamins in the Arnica-Bromelian Complex! I can't wait to see the results!

My skin has been recovering. My skin isn’t red or bruised at the sites of my Botox injections. I take one twice daily, in the morning and on before evening. I wish I had this when I used filler to correct the area under my eyes (eye hollows)! It would have been great to decrease the bruising and swelling because I looked like I was in a boxing ring both times. Oh, nothing compares to the bruising I had after waking up from Rhinoplasty many years ago.
I’ll check back in before and after I finish the bottle. I’m happy that something other than ice is helping and even more excited that it’s natural!

I took one Arnica-Bromelain Complex supplement twice daily and I just took the last one today. I took a photo of the vitamin in case anyone wanted to see an image of it.

I figured the red marks on my face were going to be bruises I’d need to cover up during this last week. I used ice on my face more than I would after having any injections and the directions say to do so. As I mentioned before I don’t always ice for long after I have Botox. I put an arrow on the injection sites where I thought I’d bruise (from past experience).

I am going to wait a day but my skin didn’t bruise and it did recover a lot faster than before! I would buy this product and I am eager to try the cream next time. I must admit I was a little nervous taking an oral supplement but I asked my primary care doctor and dermatologist and I got the okay. I’m glad I gave it a try! It’s worth it.
