- Infection, though rare with proper sterile technique.
- Allergic reactions to injectables, topical agents, or anesthesia.
- Changes in skin pigmentation (hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation).
- Scarring, particularly with ablative laser procedures.
- Asymmetry or unsatisfactory aesthetic results.
- Nerve injury leading to temporary or, very rarely, permanent muscle weakness (with injectables).
- Lumpiness or visibility of filler material.
- Skin necrosis (tissue death) from vascular compromise, a rare but serious risk with fillers.
Recovery & hospital stay
- Immediate aftercare involves applying cool compresses to reduce swelling and avoiding touching the area.
- Use gentle, non-exfoliating cleansers and moisturizers as recommended.
- Strict sun protection with broad-spectrum SPF 30+ is crucial to prevent pigmentation changes.
- Avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat (saunas, hot showers), and alcohol for 24-48 hours.
- Do not pick, scratch, or rub the treated skin.
- For injectables, avoid facial massages or pressure on the area for 1-2 weeks.
- Follow-up appointments may be scheduled to assess results and for potential touch-ups.
- Final results for many treatments become apparent after swelling subsides and collagen remodels, which can take several weeks.
