Complications and Risks of Filler Treatments

Safety first: what you need to know about fillers

Although fillers like hyaluronic acid are common and safe treatments, complications can occur in rare cases. It is important that you are well informed about the possible risks and side effects of fillers, so you can make well-considered choices. At Xavier Clinics we ensure maximum safety by working with BIG-registered physicians and A-brand fillers of the highest quality.

Consultation with the medical specialist

Before all treatments, a consultation is scheduled. During this consultation, the specialist will listen to your wishes and explore the options available to achieve them. The specialist will thoroughly inform you about pre- and aftercare, the expected results, any risks, and the recovery process for the chosen treatment.

The treatment

Once you've chosen to undergo treatment with us, we'll ask you to complete a medical questionnaire and sign a treatment agreement beforehand. If you take a lot of medication, please bring your medication list to your appointment.

Photos will be taken of you both before and after the treatment for your medical records. In some cases, the skin is locally anesthetized with a numbing cream or anesthetic solution before the treatment.

Aftercare

After the treatment, you will receive an aftercare form by email. You do not need to stay at the clinic and can go home immediately. It is common for the skin to be red and swollen after the treatment, and sometimes some bruising may occur. These side effects will disappear on their own. It is important that you cool the treated area well with the cool pack you received, if advised. If you experience severe bruising, we recommend applying Arnica cream to the treated area.

It is recommended that you avoid applying makeup to the treated areas for the first four hours after treatment. Exposure to intense heat (sun, sauna, or tanning bed) is also discouraged for one week after treatment. We advise against having a facial for two weeks after treatment. You can assess the final result after two weeks.

If you have any questions about your recovery, please feel free to contact us.

The risk of complications is very small. As with any procedure, there is a small risk of infection or allergy.
