Potential Risks and Side Effects

While micro-cannulas reduce risks compared to traditional needles, some side effects may still occur:

• Mild swelling or redness: Typically resolves within a few days.
• Bruising at the injection site: Temporary and usually fades within a week.
• Discomfort: Minimal pain may occur post-procedure.
• Infection: Proper sterilisation reduces this risk.
• Allergic reactions: Rare but possible with some filler ingredients.
• Vascular occlusion: Requires immediate medical attention if it occurs.
• Temporary lumpiness or uneven texture: May occur due to filler placement and usually settles within a few days. 
• Itching or irritation: Mild sensitivity at the injection site may occur but typically subsides quickly. 
• Tenderness or soreness: Some patients may experience temporary discomfort in the treated area. 
• Skin discolouration: Minor pigmentation changes or temporary blanching can occur but usually fade over time. 
• Headache or dizziness: Rare but possible in sensitive individuals after the procedure. 
• Numbness or tingling: Temporary sensation changes may occur due to pressure on nerve endings. 
• Delayed-onset nodules: In rare cases, small lumps may appear weeks after treatment and require medical evaluation. 
• Tissue necrosis: Extremely rare but serious, this occurs when filler is inadvertently injected into a blood vessel, leading to skin damage.

Softfil Precision Micro-Cannula 25G/50mm Treatment Contraindications

Certain conditions and situations make this treatment unsuitable:

• Active infections or skin conditions: Increases the risk of complications and delayed healing.

• Bleeding disorders: Higher risk of excessive bruising or hematoma formation.
• Blood-thinning medications: Patients taking anticoagulants or high-dose aspirin may experience excessive bleeding or bruising.
• Pregnancy and breastfeeding: Not recommended due to a lack of safety data.
• Compromised immune system: Patients with weakened immunity due to illness or medication may have a higher infection risk.
• Autoimmune diseases: Conditions such as lupus or rheumatoid arthritis may increase the risk of adverse reactions.
• Hypersensitivity to filler ingredients: May cause allergic reactions or severe irritation.
• Severe allergies or anaphylaxis history: Increased risk of an adverse reaction to the procedure or materials used.
• Active acne or skin inflammation: Can exacerbate skin irritation and increase infection risk.
• Recent vaccination or illness: Recent immune system activation may interfere with healing and increase the risk of reactions.
• Neurological disorders: Conditions such as myasthenia gravis or multiple sclerosis may impact the body’s response to treatment.
• Keloid or hypertrophic scarring history: Patients prone to excessive scarring may not be suitable candidates.
