Injection Site Reactions

Hyaluronic acid injections can cause temporary and mild reactions at the injection site such as pain, swelling, redness, and bruising. These effects are usually self-limiting and resolve within a few days.

Injection site reactions following hyaluronic acid injections are common and typically involve localized pain, swelling, redness (erythema), bruising (ecchymosis), and tenderness at the point of injection. These reactions are usually mild and self-limiting, resolving within a few days to a week. The severity can vary depending on the individual's sensitivity, the injection technique, and the volume of hyaluronic acid injected. In rare cases, more severe reactions like infection or nodule formation can occur.
