Infection: Although rare, there is a risk of infection at the injection site.
Inconsistent results: Results may not be completely consistent, and additional sessions may be needed to correct them.
Clumps: Some materials may collect at the injection site, causing bumps.
Allergy: Some people may experience an allergic reaction to the components of the filler.
Scarring: In very rare cases, scarring may appear at the injection site.
Vascular blockage: In very rare cases, filler injections may cause blood vessels to become blocked, which can lead to tissue damage or blindness (especially in the face). This is considered one of the most serious side effects.
Bleeding: Minor bleeding may occur at the injection site.
