Treatment
The treatments are generally fast and easy. However, all wrinkle fillers can have a downside. The risks may include an allergic reaction and you may feel a formation of tiny bumps under the skin. In most cases the nodules “bumps” are not permanent. They may develop a bluish tent skin discoloration beneath the skin known as the Tyndall effect. The color change can last several months, however, treatments are available. In very rare cases, skin cells may die if the Hyaluronic Acid wrinkle fillers are not used properly. There have also been some reported cases of blindness and nerve damage.
