Fillers are synthetic or natural substances injected into lines, folds, wrinkles, and facial tissue to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and restore facial fullness that diminishes with age. However, as with any cosmetic procedure, it is important to be aware of the possible side effects that may accompany the use of facial fillers.
The vast majority of fillers are absorbable. Thus, they provide temporary results that last from a few months to a few years, depending on the product and the person. Some of them are marketed as permanent and can last up to several years. Fillers are of different types, depending on the function: hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA), poly-L-lactic acid, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), autologous fat injections.
Side effects of facial fillers
The following side effects - which tend to occur around the injection site - may be immediate, but usually go away within 7 to 14 days:
