Yes, Dermal fillers are considered safe. They have been used in millions of treatments worldwide for over a decade and have been thoroughly tested and proven to be effective.

The results of dermal fillers are practically instant, as the filler adds volume immediately upon injection. However, it is important to note that there may be slight swelling or redness in the treated area, which should subside within a few hours.

Every medical procedure carries some risk, but dermal fillers are generally considered safe. Possible side-effects may include swelling, redness, pain, bruising, tenderness, and itching, which usually subside within a few days. In very rare cases, patients may develop lumps or nodules, which can be reversed with hyaluronidase treatment. It is important to choose a skilled practitioner who understands the use of dermal fillers, indications, contraindications, and how to prevent and avoid potential complications. Serious complications, such as accidental injection into a vein or artery leading to tissue necrosis, are extremely rare but can occur. Hyaluronidase treatment can reverse the effects of the dermal fillers in such cases.
