Our most likely answer- Probably!
Bruising is a common and usually temporary side effect of injectable treatments. It can happen when the needle touches a tiny blood vessel beneath the skin-and some people naturally bruise more easily than others.
To help minimise the risk, follow your practitioner’s aftercare advice and avoid rubbing or pressing the treated area unless instructed. Always tell your practitioner about any medicatio or supplements you take, but never stop prescribed medication without medical advice.
Common blood thinner include alcohol, garlic, fish oil, tumeric & anti-inflammatories.
Bruising usually settles within a few days. If you experience severe pain, unusual skin changes or anything that concerns you, contact your practitioner promptly.
