Bruising and dermal filler

Updated: Jul 8, 2022



Bruising:- A area of injured tissue or skin where the blood capillaries have been raptured

leading to a discolouration of the skin.

A bruise is known by the medical term ecchymosis

Bruising is common when injecting dermal filler, however I will do everything in my power to prevent it happening


Before treatment I will:-


✔️Take a full medical history

✔️Ask you to avoid herbal and vitamin supplements

✔️Avoid aspirin

✔️Avoid non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs

✔️Avoid alcohol (2days prior)

✔️Avoid vigorous exercise (2 days prior)


During treatment I will:


✔️Use a slow injection speed which will allow the skin tissue to spread gently

✔️Apply low pressure injections

✔️Use non aggressive injection techniques


After treatment I will:-


✔️Provide you with a cold compress

✔️Apply arnica( to speed up the dissipation of any trapped blood)

✔️Give you a printed and verbal list of post treatment does and do nots



Just me keeping you safe ❤️
