Permanent bruises - still have discoloration 4 months after treatment

ORIGINAL POST

Permanent Bruises

Lana Kent
$2,500
I got three rounds of treatment (1 package of 3 treatments) in September and October 2021. 4 months later I still have discoloration from the bruising. I can’t tell if the QWO reduced any dimpling due to the remaining bruises. At this point would not recommend at all as I don’t know if the discoloration will ever recede

I also have the same thing. I have bruising and had my last treatment in February of 2022. Can you tell me if yours has gone away? I just reached out to the place that did my treatment and they told me they are not getting the results that they had hoped with it and they want to see me but did not offer any type of help to get rid of the bruising.

Thanks for sharing! I had QWO done in January and I’m having the same problems. I still have bad bruising on both buttocks and I also do not notice any dimple improvement on my buttocks. A waste of money in my opinion.

I am more than disappointed with the results from QWO. When I asked about possible permanent side effects, I was told there were none since I have fair skin. Five months after the last treatment, and no dimpling improvement, in addition to possible permanent stains on the back of my thighs, and buttocks. Of course my doctor’s office is claiming that it will take up to a year. What happened to four weeks after the last treatment? I’ am 5’5” and weigh 120, plus I workout, and go to yoga six days a week, so it”s not from being sedentary. Huge waste of time,, and money!
I feel for everyone that was lied to about this treatment.

Update - 9 months out

The discoloration seems to have faded as it doesn’t bother me anymore but not sure there was any difference in the cellulite. Took around 7-8 months for the discoloration to recede. I wouldn’t do QWO again even if free for fear of the bruising issue again

I still have permanent bruising 7 months later. This treatment should not be in the market. Horrible! I can’t even wear a bathing suit.

I am dealing with the same issue! Went in with high hopes for my thighs and butt but 5 months later have “faded bruising” look and I feel small knots along my thigh. At this point I do not recommend. SMH

I’m over 4 months post my last injection and the bruising is so bad. Heading to Florida for the holiday but can’t wear a bathing suit. Not worth it.
