Side effects:
Immediately after treatment, injection related reactions like redness and swelling and in rare cases itching or bruising may be observed at the injection site(s). The day after, a pronounced swelling may occur but this will resolve spontaneously within 3-7 days. Allergic reactions in the form of urticaria, oedema, bronchospasm, anaphylactic reactions/ shocks (i.e. acute respiratory distress syndrome, cardiovascular system reactions) are extremely rare, because Venome Filler Lidocaine is protein free due to the non-animal source.
Rarely, formation of nodules or oedema may occur at the injection site. In case of an inflammatory reaction it is recommended that the patient visits the physician.
Literature on hyaluronic acid based filler materials reports individual cases of granuloma, abscesses, delayed hypersensitivity reactions and discolouration. Other rare side effects found in the literature are necrosis caused by vessel occlusion. These are caused by the injection of the filler material into vessels causing occlusion, or when the filler material presses against the arterial wall.
Injection of lidocaine may cause a local redness or hypersensitivity reaction.
