I got swollen after injecting hyaluronic acid for half a year.

After injecting hyaluronic acid, swelling suddenly appeared half a year later. There are many reasons for this phenomenon. It may be due to allergies or the swelling may be caused by drug stimulation. At this time, it is best to go to the hospital for examination to determine the cause. You can take some anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor, and you can use some hot compress methods, which will help relieve swelling of the face.

What should I pay attention to after injecting hyaluronic acid?

1. Good care must be taken after hyaluronic acid injection cosmetic surgery

After injecting hyaluronic acid, keep your face relaxed and do not make too many facial expressions, such as laughing, facial twitching, etc. Do not take a sauna or hot spring bath within two weeks after the injection to avoid accelerated decomposition of hyaluronic acid on the face. At the same time, eat a light diet and do not smoke or drink. Do not massage the injection site within one month, as massage will only accelerate the disappearance of the injection effect.

2. Normal reactions and abnormal reactions must be distinguished after surgery

Generally speaking, the injection will cause some local bruising, swelling, pain and pinholes. These are normal reactions and will disappear naturally after a period of time. If these symptoms persist for a long time and are accompanied by nodules, this is an abnormal reaction and you need to go to the hospital to see a doctor in time.

3. If you have any adverse symptoms after the injection, you must see a doctor immediately.

If there are local skin nodules, redness, swelling, pain, poor shape, or even skin necrosis after the injection, causing adverse reactions such as eye dysfunction, you must go to the hospital to see a doctor in time. The doctor will find out the cause according to the situation of the adverse symptoms, and then carry out targeted repair and improvement.

4. After injection, you must understand the factors that affect its metabolic rate

Hyaluronic acid injection has different absorption and metabolism processes in different human bodies, and ultimately has different retention times. Different personal conditions, weight and age will affect the metabolic rate. Generally speaking, people with a thin physique have a faster metabolism than those who are overweight, and the older you are, the faster your metabolism is. The metabolic rate of hyaluronic acid is higher when it is injected for the first time. People with bad living habits will also have a high metabolism. In addition, the absorption of different injection sites is also different.
