Potential Risks and Side Effects

While Revanesse Contour with Lidocaine is a high-quality dermal filler with a strong safety profile, some side effects may still occur. 

Common side effects:

• Redness and swelling: Temporary inflammation at the injection site.
• Bruising: Small blood vessels may be affected, leading to mild bruising.
• Tenderness or pain: Minor discomfort that fades within a few days.
• Itching or irritation: The skin may feel slightly irritated as it adjusts.

Less common side effects:

• Lumps or nodules: Uneven distribution of filler, usually corrected with a massage.
• Asymmetry: Slight unevenness that may require a touch-up.
• Delayed swelling or mild inflammation: Some patients may experience swelling weeks after injection.
• Prolonged bruising: In rare cases, bruising can last longer than usual.

Rare but serious side effects:

• Allergic reactions: Symptoms may include rash, itching, or swelling beyond the injection site.
• Infection: If sterility is compromised, bacterial infections may occur.
• Vascular occlusion (blood vessel blockage): If filler is accidentally injected into a blood vessel, it can cause skin discolouration, pain, or tissue damage. Urgent medical intervention is needed.
• Granulomas: Hard lumps that form due to an inflammatory reaction.
• Blurred vision or blindness: Extremely rare but possible if filler obstructs blood flow to the eyes. This requires immediate emergency treatment.

Revanesse Contour with Lidocaine Treatment Contraindications

Revanesse Contour with Lidocaine is not suitable for all patients: 

• Patients with severe allergies to hyaluronic acid or lidocaine: Those with known hypersensitivity to these ingredients are at risk of allergic reactions.
• Individuals with a history of anaphylaxis: Severe allergic reactions can be life-threatening, making this filler unsuitable.
• Patients with autoimmune diseases: Conditions like lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, or scleroderma can interfere with healing and increase inflammation.
• Those with active skin infections or inflammation: Acne, cold sores, or dermatitis in the treatment area can lead to complications and should be resolved first.
• Individuals with bleeding disorders or on blood thinners: Patients with haemophilia or those taking anticoagulants (e.g., aspirin, warfarin) may experience excessive bruising or bleeding.
• Pregnant or breastfeeding women: There is no clinical data on the safety of Revanesse Contour with Lidocaine during pregnancy or lactation.
• Patients with a history of keloid scarring: Those prone to keloids may develop excessive scar tissue at the injection site.
• Individuals with certain neurological disorders: Patients with conditions like myasthenia gravis or ALS may have increased sensitivity to lidocaine.
• People with a compromised immune system: Those undergoing chemotherapy, organ transplant recipients, or individuals with chronic infections may not heal properly.
• Patients who have recently had other dermal filler treatments or cosmetic procedures: Combining different fillers or undergoing laser treatments, microneedling, or chemical peels too soon can cause unwanted reactions.
