Frequently Asked Questions

• What are the risks and side effects?

  As with any medical procedure, there is always a small risk you can minimise by taking precautionary steps. At your doctor led skin consult, we will:

  • Excessive immune response: too much collagen production can trigger raised nodules, lumps or redness. It is more frequent in patients with autoimmune disorders, under intense stress, or with new medical comorbidities. If identified early, your doctor can treat it with injectable or oral steroids.
  • Inadequate immune response: in patients who take high doses of steroids, Bio Remodelling fillers might be ineffective. During the initial consultation, your doctor will consider existing medications when creating your treatment plan.
  • Infection: even minimally-invasive medical procedures carry a small risk of infection. It is crucial to treat this early while the issue is mild. If left untreated, any infection can become serious. You should work with an experienced clinician who provides close follow-up.
  • Vascular occlusion: any filler procedure carries the risk of injection into a blood vessel. With biostimulating fillers, this is very rare. However, you need treatment from an experienced clinician with a thorough understanding of anatomy.
